yeah but you've got to hope niggas will follow your self-hosted relay unlike fedi where they are forced to see your shit unless they specifically defederate you

sub to many relays, make friends, ask em to follow ur relay, profit

it should be more organic

MischievousTomato 2y ago

perhaps as this grows itll be more organic

FrailLeaf 2y ago

i mean, you are still manually adding relays all the time...

MischievousTomato 2y ago

isnt this still in its infancy? It seems similar to how xmpp handles stuff, so it getting better shouldnt be impossible

Nigger1488 2y ago

you will end up with like barely anyone seeing your posts tbh, it'll be just void posting. If only relays could federate with/follow each other that would be epic.

> not aware of the one relay all the fun people are on

> its over

MischievousTomato 2y ago

😔

Nigger1488 2y ago

if there isn't already someone will make a relay list you can subscribe to and autofollow like a hosts.txt lol - which would somewhat work but it will be vulnerable to jannying

FrailLeaf 2y ago

exactly and that is how we are making fun of fediblock niggas right now lol

MischievousTomato 2y ago

i think relays arent supposed to talk to each other

Nigger1488 2y ago

yeah it's kinna fucked up

FrailLeaf 2y ago

partially decentraised if you think about it.

Nigger1488 2y ago

cyberia federates with >10,000 instances and I cbf clicking a button that many times (currently following like 10 relays) - there's no way you can match the decentralisation of fedi with an opt-in/manual system like this

FrailLeaf 2y ago

real shit, its literally impossible to achieve that by hand. You either have a "clean" persona to crawl the relay page and update your client or don't bother using it

Nigger1488 2y ago

that being said - idk the technical details of the protocol well enough but like why cant we just make relays federate with each other - even if it's as simple as you make a relay and when you make your relay follow a relay it autofollows back along with all the relays that follow it

MischievousTomato 2y ago

importing a txt file could do the trick, but yeah

Nigger1488 2y ago

this is dependent on the new relay creators actually subbing to the relay list thing and then dependent again on the relay list guy not going janny-mode on who he lets stay on the list. There will likely be multiple such lists created according to jannying disputes making the whole process more difficult.

FrailLeaf 2y ago

nostr is curated for crpto fags and there's not going to be this mode anytime soon

Nigger1488 2y ago

idk if it's "curated" for them per se or if the zapping feature just drew them like flies to a pile of dogshit

FrailLeaf 2y ago

have you seen "paid relays" they want you to pay to use them and you have to again pay per post

Nigger1488 2y ago

lmaooooo - I think I saw that on the nostr info page for hosting your public key as a service (lol lmao) but not for just paying to sub and post on them

Nigger1488 2y ago

imagine paying to post on something almost nobody will fucking see

FrailLeaf 2y ago

>public key as a service

they will turn anything into a fucking business jargon

Nigger1488 2y ago

I kinna misremembered - it's more like DNS but for your username and you pay someone to add your public key mapping to your username (or just host yourself) (or just do not fucking care)

FrailLeaf 2y ago

okay makes sense with the self-hosted thing. Why the fuck would you want it to be "verified"? these people have no concept of personality

Nigger1488 2y ago

I'm guessing it's so you can actually look someone up by their username instead of their public key - inginsub better pay up his sats to become the real Nigger1488
