So it will be like an echo chamber thing ?
In theory, you can just add it to the general relays on Amethyst. But proxies cannot AUTH you into other relays. So, they can only work on public ones.
Also, join if you have feelings about this. Relay settings is hard :) https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/issues/1282

No, they are good. Just make sure they can access the relays you want to. You can make them connect with 100s of relays and then simply share one connection down to the client.
Also I thought about something that you go to your client settings on desktop and have the option to click download and set proxy for noobs
What's a good source to learn more about proxy relays? I'm trying to determine if my plan is feasible:
- users run their own proxy relays.
- their clients connect to their single proxy relay
- their proxy relay connects to other users' proxy relays
-- when "following" a user, your proxy relay is instructed to connect to that user's proxy relay, if it exists. Opposite for "unfollowing"
It's the last bit that I think may be the hard part.
For the context of this question, assume all Nostr users have an always-on personal server that runs their relay.
