wasting the resources of shared relays to store blobs? I don’t believe this will work. Nostr isn’t a general purpose blob storage system. GitHub gives you storage if you pay them or keep under their free tier usage. Git is already decentralized, you just have to store it yourself.
If you are using a private relay that stores the blobs, what does this offer over gitlab except a worse experience? You can run your own decentralized “GitHub like experience” on your own without need for nostr at all using Gitlab or other open source software.
A lot of these “on nostr” ideas don’t really make sense or are in any way scalable or economical.

maybe.
people are already paying for relays... to store their general purpose blobs (images, notes, and other stuff) where other people can request them.

Are they? I’d be interested to know how many people pay for relays in 2025, especially that would allow large note sizes.
