I’ve had this starred for a couple months waiting on an idea to use it for! What initially comes to mind for you?

I like baking /goodbread and building apps on web3 protocols. DevRel @ ENS Labs. gregskril.com

would love to hook it up to the lazy indexer and run opencast fully client side

actually now that you say it, i think i found this repo right before farcon when i was telling you about the maximally decentralized local client idea! would be sick

the lazy indexer's footprint is < 4gb for a single user's network, so totally doable imo

that is all casts by users that i follow for example? 4gb seems high

yea realistically you can just fetch the latest page of 1000 items (still high) for each data type to have a solid reverse chrono feed

it's a complete backfill for the users you follow. mine ends up around 2.5gb iirc, don't imagine it getting much bigger than that so 4gb is conservative

haven't actually looked into the composition of that data, it's possible there could be a mistake somewhere. local first can also probably do some optimizations like lazily fetching casts >7 days old
