Nostr Web Client

Jay - thanks for the feedback! I can definitely add a buy link to the filter readme page. We could definitely use a rewritten terms of service and clearer definitions on the site but have been distracted building.

As for the period of time question - the 18,888 covers write access to nostr.wine and 1 month of filter.nostr.wine access. We don’t have any plans to add additional payment requirements to nostr.wine but we are hesitant to make “lifetime” guarantees because we don’t know how our infrastructure will scale at 10x, 100x, or 1000x the current size.

Please do let us know if you more feedback or run in to any issues using it!

One more question… If I've specified wss://filter.nostr.wine as a relay, is it necessary to also have wss://nostr.wine? Seems like that would cause double the traffic for you…

I ask because I repeated saw the instruction to set up wss://nostr.wine and nothing saying not to if filter was set up.

They are completely separate. Nostr.wine is just a normal pay-to-write relay. It has geographically distributed regional mirrors and is much easier to scale.

Filter’s goal is to be a PUBLIC relay aggregator/broadcaster and let users decide which paid/private relays they want to choose to be apart of individually.

I get the difference but doesn’t filter read and write to nostr.wine? So isn’t specifying nostr.wine redundant if you’ve subscribed & set up filter?

No, filter only reads from the public relays in the readme list.
