nostr:npub1y80vm0yvp64cx6e8y0eetu4mhwt5muzrttgaj8a988xnx5q4kn2qlu87je please add wss://relay.orly.dev/ to your relay list, i have been wondering for some time why i don't see your events, and it's because either your client is not sending them to my main personal relay, or because you are using a client that doesn't support NIP-42 auth and thus your client is not publishing them to my relay. please fix this. i miss your comedy, a lot.

Nostr is decentralized, it will be centralized if we all used the same relays to see each other.
Gowron's client should not send the events to your relay, it doesn't makes sense to send my events to everyone relays.
Instead, Gowron's client send the events to Gowron's write relays, and your client should read from it and fetch Gowron's events, why? because Gowron in your follow list (contact list).
What is your client?

also, he did add my relay, so it must be the client he is using, not using the relay correctly. nip-42 support on orly is completely correct and has been extensively tested and supported, it works fine with jumble, nostrudel and coracle
also, fun fact, the primal wallet does not support NWC correctly, to the point we have had to exclude it from testing on plebeian market.

also, i don't think that Semisol has bothered to un-ban me from nostr.land relays. that won't be helping either. and i'm calling him out because a) he is effectively cutting me off, as evidenced by this situation, from people who i follow and b) he has not revised his blacklist with it in mind that he is cutting off two people on nostr from communicating.

Just ignore it, you can have as many relays as you want, I don't know why it's suggested in the NIP to have less than 6.

Why? you asking him to publish his events to a relay in your list, this isn't decentralization if I have to write to relays of people I know. Each person writes to whatever relay they want, and you (as a follower) have to listen to those relays and fetch their events.
To clarify, the client can connect to any relay without needing you to add it. The basis of Nostr's decentralization is its multiple relays. When the client forces you to use a specific set of relays, this isn't decentralization; the client has to connect to the relays of those you follow to fetch their events.
The client can also send to any relay, and must send the event to your read relays if the event mentioned you.
What client you are using? so I can report this issue.
I will be getting around to setting up a relay of my own one of these days. Good idea 👍
also, i just discovered that i had muted you! aargh. humble apologies.
** Belly Laughs in Klingon **
Must have been the Baywatch 😁
might have been, i'm not sure. i was finding it amusing actually. i was never a big fan but the hoff and pamela anderson are both stellar performers
I was probably distracting you from work one day ROFL
Done. I think. Thanks for the relay tip! 😁
