With Nostr, your identity isn't attached to a relay, so if one relay doesn't like you other relays will still relay your content, while still keeping your followerbase
How would my followers (or whatever they’re called in nostr) know where to get my events from?
It seems like optimal strategy is to send to/fetch from every relay possible. Effectively, every relay would host the whole network. In this regard federation seem a little more scalable.

I don't know anything about Nostr, but couldn't that easily be solved by adding the relays that you use as a field in your event? Or even using a DHT to find relays that carry content from a particular user?
I don't know if clients support this yet but you can transmit a suggested relay with your post that people can add to their list of relays. That suggested relay should be one you control. That way they always have a point of truth for your notes.
This is a current problem. The solution is sending a small message telling everyone where you post to lots and lots of relays, then just posting to a few of them.
