Interesting!
I don't see how that could be any less legal than e.g. a git repo.
At worst, some threads might sometimes become invalidated in that way because a post was deleted.

Yeah that would work. Unfortunately, using Gemini I don't see a way I could implement this.
Unless some burden is placed on people (like asking to manually GPG-sign their messages + previous conversation hash). Also, validation could not happen easily client-side.
But with HTTP+JS the problem would still be there: one would need to trust the JS not being modified by a third party or the server itself.
It's something I need to think about, but that could change the way we trust online data.
