Thanks for the writeup, and thanks for everything you did for the ecosystem DanConwayDev (nprofile…dr87)
One thing that has kept me sceptical and reluctant to commit (pun intended) to running my projects on nostr is the "decay" of old commits due to relays losing them. IIUC, you solved this problem by letting git be git, as the article suggests? But sometimes even equally important is the meta information stored in PRs, comments, etc. How do you personally make sure all that is preserved, and what do you suggest others do? Is it a good idea to run one's own relay for backup?
