I used to hate databases. Then I spent years studying them, experimenting, and learning about they work. Now I really hate databases.

When I was 5 I found a four-leaf clover and I have been lucky ever since. It confirmed works.

Q: Why Google Drive? Can we add NextCloud or some FOSS alternative?

A: If you are self hosting NextCloud, you should just self-host a Nostr relay.

Google Drive is valuable specifically because it is the opposite of a Nostr relay. It fills a gap in the Nostr ecosystem. Using NextCloud to inch it further away misses the point. Google Drive Relay is used BECAUSE it's on the opposite end of the spectrum. I'm not saying there's no room for anything in between. But the further you try to inch it away, the closer you get to simply recreating Nostr Relays. I understand the skepticism. But in my view, this is how Nostr does an Extend-Embrace-Extinguish of legacy tech. This is Art of War. 😂

@5e5fc1434c928bcdcba6f801859d52@mostr.pub The thing I want people to see most is that people can back up their events on their computer without needing to self-host a relay.

@f4db5270bd991b17bea1e6d035f45d@mostr.pub Q: Do past events also load?
A: No, you can only store events in Google Drive. You can't query them directly.

Q: Is a service also possible on Proton drive?
A: Seems like not: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonDrive/comments/z1bofb/please_make_a_public_api_available_so_we_can_add/ Although other integrations like Dropbox or WebDAV should be possible.

@i one big jsonl file would be ideal if possible. Not sure about race conditions.

Google Drive API sucks anyway. I thought storing by filename would be idempotent. But no. It uploads two files of the same name. So you have to query the filename first before each upload. Very stupid design.
