Yes. You need to pay them. To do that, replace 'wss' with 'https' and open that URL in your browser. You will be taken to the home page of the relay.
You enter yours npub and make the lightning payment there and then the relays will start responding to you.
You only need to pay if you want to push your events to those relays. To read from a paid relay is always free.
Initially, I had the same opinion. But then in the relay home pages, it's mentioned payment is required for both publishing and fetching events. Now I am not sure how this actually works!
To fetch is not the same as to push. And obviously to READ. I said, to read from paid relays IS ALWAYS FREE hehehe
Isn't fetch and read the same?
no. isn't the same. you can read events from a pubkey and you can not fetch events related to another event on the relay.... that is the diference. I hope you understand-
Okay, probably I will need some more time to realy understand how paid relays work. Anyway, thank you both of you. 😊 Trying to zap you but a pop-up is showing "provided payment details are invalid" !
?
