relay feeds don't make sense. People join relays simply because they are free or because it's a popular relay. Why exactly do I want a relay feed? We already had relay feeds in the previous version of amethyst and it was useless.
What we need is country, state, city feeds
I think the argument from nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 et al is that it opens up innovation by relay operators to create curated feeds with wide client support
as long as relay operators implement county feeds that would be amazing, frankly I can't see users becoming faithful to a relay,
messing around and adding relays have become less important since amethyst improved the relay settings in the newest amethyst
Yeah, it doesn't make sense for the damus relay or whatever, but I do use it for a relay that by design is for a certain type of user, it costs a tiny amount to join, doesn't curate, but it does have certain guidelines for notes. Its more like browsing the notes of a follow list and its great because I want to occasionally see posts from those people, but not follow them all, or have them clutter my main feed.
I don't know if its wise for these relays to use the same interface as a take everything relay, but I don't see the downside, but also, there is no way to really draw a line between the 2.
lol, viewing this from a new client which whole point is that relay feeds are basically mandatory
users not having to do anything would be interesting
yeah, they just segment themselves by who invites them so it's all transparent for them, not something they have to think about, but it models their experience wrt p2p trades (nip-69 built in), marketplace listing (nip-99), and anything else that makes sense to be local-first.
