nostr.šŸ· is really good and does rebroadcasting to othe public relays, as well as pull and filter spam out šŸ¶šŸ¾āš”ļø

You should be okay with one paid relay, but I would grab some while they’re extremely cheap right now. In Damus, I filter my global feed to only show paid relays, so there is practically zero spam. Makes the experience much better, and you can always turn on a free relay if you want to dig for newcomers.

I bet they go down in Sats price.

Competition will increase

Possibly, but they might increase because spammers won’t mind paying a few sats to spam the global feed. Eventually, they will probably charge a few sats per note you post.

I doubt that business model would gain traction. People like free once paid for. Subscription, maybe.

Spam is def set to increase

Yes, it just depends on how the spam moves. There will be many different relay options. Some will be pay-once, others will be per-sat, and some will be free. They may even find other ways to monetize. What you choose will depend on what experience you hope to have.

For now though, definitely grab a paid relay so we can see your notes in global šŸ˜‚

I'm on wine šŸ·. That means I'm good right?

Okay I didn’t have that relay, so I wasn’t seeing them. Just added it.

I recommend you add wss://eden.nostr.land because I think it’s the most popular paid relay.

Which relay or relays do you suggest? šŸ¤”

Any of the nostr.land relays, or nostr.wine (bit more expensive, but worth it for the filters IMO).

I steal em from prominent people

I just assume they know what they're doing better than me with this

Do you mean choosing your relays by ā€œfilterā€?

I don't know what that means

In Damus you choose which relays show on your global feed, so a lot people have it filtered to only their paid relays on global

I have several relays that I’m connected to, so when I post a note, everyone on those relays see the note.

On Damus, in the global feed, you can choose to filter the relays that you see. So you’re still posting to all the relays you’re connected to, but in global you’re only seeing notes on the relays you want to see.

Ah great. I don’t see that option in Damus. But I don’t use the TestFlight version.

Yeah it’s only in TestFlight for now. Should come to App Store soon.
