Is it correct to say that the most famous 25 relays are being basically DDoSed all the time while the other 900 relays are seeing very little traffic?

Thanks for bringing this up, here is a chart that's long overdue. Events/pubkeys per relay in the last 7 days.

https://stats.nostr.band/#relay_writers

I can't measure their read-load obviously, but can tell how much events are written. As I expected, the list of top relays by number of events is materially different from list of top relays by contact list. Does this tell you anything new/interesting?

Cool! How do you define a “high-quality” pubkey?

brugeman 2y ago

There is a ref and explanation at the top of the page. Pubkeys with non zero trust rank
