Finding your tribe across a thousand relays - The Outbox Model: How Nostr Solves Content Discovery
Imagine a library. Not a nice library with a card catalog and a friendly librarian who knows where everything is. Imagine a library where every book is constantly being duplicated and torn apart and scattered across a thousand different buildings, each with its own arbitrary rules about who can enter and what they can take home. Some buildings are open to everyone. Some require a membership. Some will let you in but won't tell you what they have. Some will happily show you the books but won't let you check them out. Some are run by enthusiasts who just want to share. Some are run by corporations who want to sell you things. Some are run by governments who want to control what you read.
