Libp2p or similar stack could be used to provide the phone instance an address, caching could be distributed among peers. Of course, as long as other servers also support libp2p.
What would be the up/downsides?

Yes, the proposal is something like Nostr, but the clients can also relay data on request if they’re online. A little more decentralized.
Worth mentioning that the idea is not to make Lemmy abandon ActivityPub, but to allow further decentralisation.
There wouldn’t be a need to keep all data like a blockchain to query all data since most sort by hot/recent. Something like Gossipsub would suffice for most users.
But whenever an user queries for old or specific data, the request could be directed to a relay that archives and sorts all data.
