Is it OK to do API lookups like this https://www.osm.org/api/0.6/nodes?nodes=59906080,4400821613 even for minutely diffs? Any alternatives?
No, particularly if your code takes off and multiple people start running it. I would guess that it would hit rate limits and be automatically blocked.
If all you need is node positions this can be done fairly efficiently for the entire planet with something like osm2pgsql flat-nodes. If you need full information this takes more space. But you should consider if you're just rebuilding augmented diffs.
