But yes if we must pull only, well at least pull from fewer relays, which is easier with either centralisation or sharding by context, but if you want to see threads notifications from your home page let alone get push notifications, there is simply no alternative to fewer sources of data.
People really don't understand this, more relays is bad
They don't understand this because relays are acting as data store, and obviously more data stores is good.

By the way this is why DHTs work; they structure relays/nodes so each bunch (~8-20) are the rendezvous of specific topic.
I think the Outbox Inbox framing is good solution, so I only read notification from few relays...
However this doesn't work for global open chats because... Where the fuck should I send my replies to a thread with 300 participants? What about lurkers who still engaged? Do I send the reply to everyone relays?
Well in that case you better hope for relays centralisation
But you see, doing full #outbox is the new flex around here.
So now, 21 million relays is the bare minimum if you want to keep your grant, sir.

Yes, you should send to all the inbox relays of the 300 participants. And that works on Amethyst just fine.
