The relays are what broadcast your posts and let you see what posts others broadcast. There is a relay portion of your profile where you can select ones to connect to.
I need to spend more time trying to understand it all. I will. Thanks. Do you guys have something like blue checkmark on X? I see you have an icon after your nickname. What does it mean, how to get it and who profits from it?
It’s a purple check to verify that your name is legitimate. You register with a service like nostrplebs.com so no one can steal your exact name. The people hosting make a small upfront fee. Not sure the long term economics of it. nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 would have a better answer to this.
