Why not IPFS for Nostr? When a relay copies a post, they simply need to pin the image, for redundancy. For mobile clients, we can run IPFS-HTTP proxies.

the adversion to ipfs is how well it works i think ipfs content address in notes with referal in app to domain proxies would work well, if the ipfs app on mobile improves that can be used later
View quoted note → proxies is a good solution, and if we use ipfs or torrent we also have the option for p2p which will be good for bigger files many people have unlimited traffic and idle hardware which is why p2p has so much potential legal problems will always exist, centralized platforms have bigger problems with legal than p2p as to latency with p2p holepunch.to seems very good, have you used keet.io ?
the naming scheme is on the tiny end of the problem vs getting apps and relays to adopt ipfs, and not even certain ipfs is best
