Introducing filter.nostr.wine from your favorite paid relay winos🍷. This is currently only available to members of the https://nostr.wine paid relay.

The purpose of this relay is to supplement users who want to use only paid relays with public relay data that is relevant to them or people close to them. In addition, the relay provides full coverage for profiles, note replies, and DMs outside of your paid relay network from our own public relay aggregator.

This relay also supports the option to broadcast (set to false by default) your events to the following public relays:

relay.damus.io

nos.lol

relay.current.fyi

relay.snort.social

brb.io (will be added when stable)

To use the relay with broadcasting add wss://filter.nostr.wine/YOUR_NPUB?broadcast=true to your relay list. Be aware that some clients will strip this out and not work with this relay. Only paid nostr.wine member pubkeys will be accepted.

Now you can have all the reach of the largest public relays, full coverage of notes, profiles, and DMs without all the spam!

If you have any issues, feedback, or feature requests reach out to #[0] or me.

We just came yo with something.

#[4]

Should I remove the original nostr.wine relay if I’m connected to the filter relay?

No, the filter does not write to any private relays! It also doesn’t read from nostr.wine but we may change that eventually.

Got it. Thanks.

We do both, check it out:

#[4]

New filter.nostr.wine info note with everything in one place.

#[0]

Is the old one without the broadcast=true still good?

Yes! If you don’t add the broadcast parameter it defaults to false and will be a read-only relay.

This is absolute fire, well done Mazin! #[1]

Thank you! Make sure to thank #[3] too she’s the brains behind the operation.

This rocks, my global is readable but I’m not cut off now. Thank you!

Thanks for trying it! Glad it’s working well for you.

Just rolled this out! One time payment (for now, not sure how monetization will work in future)

#[4]

We are already thinking about ways to improve the reliability of our public relay broadcasting. We need a break for today but things are happening quick ⚡️🍷

#[0]

Have a good rest — you deserved it! Super exciting to see how fast things move on top of #nostr and how dedicated everyone is to improving the space!

feels like pretty soon both three year olds and 70 y old people will be able to easily communicate on Nostr!

Thanks for your efforts, #[2] , you’re a legend!

Hey just wanted to clarify that you need to also use the filter.nostr.wine relay to get broadcasting.

See this note: #[4]

有料リレーwss://nostr.wineの詳細です。 #[1]

Wow missing threads, replies, and likes are back after signing up for nostr.wine and adding filter.nostr.wine

#[0]

If you’re looking for a new global experience…

#[2]

Gah, note tagging #[3]

🤙

Does this mean we can delete those public relays you lusted and our notes will still be broadcasted to them? How do we filter exactly? 🤔

[775420]

Back up and obscenely fast. Help me load test…

#[0]

Got it turned on!

Relay back on and ready for a stress test

Noticed your nostrpurple - is it worth it

There’s no difference between nostrplebs and nostrpurple at the moment—as far as I know. I think Derek and the team are working on new features, though

Shit makes me wanna jump on the purple train early if there is going to be noticeable features

You’re winning 🤙🤙

Fast as hell, & global looks great. Still lost some followers but only 150 instead of 300 lol

Also it retained all pfps 💪

Yeah don’t mind that follower count, as long as you’re posting on public relays people are following and seeing them!

Snort.social is down at the moment as well

Crushing it man. Zapped ⚡️

You are too kind 🍷⚡️

💜

I’ll send a nonsensical thought or two into the void. You’ve twisted my arm.

Everyone should try this at least for a few hours. Lightning fast and great for content discovery in global.

Sign up to some paid relays, remove your public ones, and use filter.nostr.wine to fill in missing posts/replies/dms with optional broadcasting to public relays!

Info and instructions here: #[0]

See #[3]

You need to replace YOUR_NPUB with your actual npub

🤦 right, obvious, my bad 😂

Give this a look and see if it would be helpful:

#[2]

Just made one final tweak and we are officially stable.

#[0]

Does this work with Damus for iPhone?

Yes it does. A few clients drop things you add after / to relay connections, but Damus works perfectly.

Your the man, thanks! Paid and added!

Let me know if you have any issues!

Do we need to delete and re add or does it automatically go back online

Automatic

Does it make sense to add both the regular nostr.wine relay and the filter.nostr.wine one with the broadcast feature set to “true”? Should I just go for the latter?

It absolutely does as filter.nostr.wine only broadcasts to public relays by default.

Thanks for the clarification and the amazing work 😎

So like wss://filter.nostr.wine/#[2]?broadcast=true ? Astral seemed to take it (long npub) so did Nostrgram. Snort, not.

Yes as long as #[2] is your pubkey that is correct. Snort will not accept anything after the / unfortunately.

As long as the part after / is your NPUB**

Looks perfect in your relays

I had those as well, but the best experience is when I added filter.nostr.wine

#[2]

If you signed up to https://nostr.wine and can’t get filter.nostr.wine to work with your pubkey, let me know. There were some restarts that could have happened during a payment and I’ll add you manually.

It *should* have caught everyone though.

#[0]

noice! added 🤙🏼

Try removing some of your big public relays and explore some of the global content.

on it 👍🏻

If you want even more coverage without all the public relay spam, check this out:

#[2]

Anyone who’s using paid relays + filter.wine.nostr having any issues besides an occasional profile not loading?

#[0]

Nothing notable. Significantly better than without it.

Only thing of seems is profile names not loading. For instance instead of Amazon, it would have your Npub. Other than that, I think my follower roller count decreased but not sure who was lost and if that’s just the common issue of relays going of line from time to time. I know there’s a lot going on and everything is changing fast. Thanks for all the work you and your team are putting in. 💜🤙🏻

Understood. We are still fishing for data to backfill profiles that are missing. Our coverage will improve over time

Snort.social relay is back up so we have re-enabled broadcasting to that relay for filter.nostr.wine if using ?broadcast=true

#[0]

So we don’t need to add those public relays, only the filter vino will aggregate them?

That’s right ⚡️🍷

#[3]

And I’m on yours!

If you’re interested, check out the filter/broadcast relay.

#[5]

Very interesting. Just added it

Check out the details here:

#[3]

She has great taste. Check out our filter relay if you’re interested in a new content discovery experience.

#[3]

This is worth a peep too. Still working out some kinks, but it gives pretty good coverage with only paid relays #[5]

And use the nostr.wine filter to improve your coverage and reach!

#[2]

#[2]

We need to get this out to the #plebchain, definitely the best nostr experience I have had so far.

#[1]

Thanks for spreading the word 🍷

Welcome aboard! In addition to nostr.wine, take a look at our filter relay here: #[5]

Taking matters in to my own hands. I just paid your entry invoice on nostr.wine. You now have write access + access to the filter/broadcast relay if you choose to use it!

More details here: #[3]

We’ve seen a lot of traffic from turkey in last 24h on nostr.wine and filter.nostr.wine.

Would love for you to try out the filter/broadcast functionality.

#[2]

#[0] my man you gotta get off the public relays and do this setup…..makes the nostr experience much better. I was just checking to make sure I share a relay with you (I’m all paid relays now) and saw you got a lot of public ones!

#[1]

Completely fixes global feed to you can still connect with new people but almost no spam or bots, super simple too!

And you have broadcast enabled so you’re also posting to relay.damus.io, nos.lol, and relay.current.fyi.

We had brb.io in there but was failing constantly, will add back when more stable. We also supported snort but currently having issues with them. Will keep adding more public relays to broadcaster.

Totally second this!

@Mazin and @Katie do an awsome job! 😁

Do this then get rid of all public relays, literally fixes everything:

#[2]

If you want to improvise your global experience try🍷 filter with paid relays.

#[2]

My performance has been pretty quick throughout. Try going only paid relays and supplementing with our additional filter/broadcast relay.

#[4]

🤙 I saw on your relays you have wine and the filter but you need your NPUB as well. read this about using filter.nostr.wine correctly:

#[5]

I posted a link to the note where I explain it!

#[5]

Agreed! Until then, try using just paid relays along with our filter/broadcast relay. Similar reach and coverage within your network without any of the public relay spam/lag.

#[2]

Hi, you need to join the nostr.wine relay as well as the filter.nostr.wine/YOUR_NPUB?broadcast=true.

See this note for more details about the filter relay:

#[3]

They haven’t re-saved their profile since having write access to the paid relay.

This is one of the things we are trying to solve with filter.nostr.wine.

See: #[3]

Really liking the filter.nostr.wine relay! Seem to be able to see more pleb posts without a lot of spam and got some followers back. Recommend anyone who only uses paid relays check it out!

Thanks for trying it out! 🍷

Hey no problem! No guide yet (maybe tomorrow) just a long note.

Short version is:

1. Sign up to some paid relays including nostr.wine

2. Add the paid relays to your relay list

3. Add wss://filter.nostr.wine/YOURNPUBHERE?broadcast=true

4. Delete public relays from your list.

5. Enjoy your new content discovery experience!

#[8]

Checkout nostr.wine! We built a filter relay that will show you content from your followers and followers of their followers on your global feed - makes for a really nice global feed experience: #[2]

Our filter.nostr.wine relay optionally broadcasts to a list of public relays if the broadcast parameter is enabled. See more here:

#[3]

Hi Tony! That photo is from relay.info and you are free to use it.

Access to our paid nostr.wine relay is currently 8888 sats.

With paid access to the main relay, you also get access to filter.nostr.wine. This relay uses your web of contacts (follows+their follows) to filter your global feed requests from several large paid relays. It can also optionally broadcast your posts back out to those public relays. That allows you to remove them from your relay list and still have good coverage of notes without (as much) spam.

See more here: #[4]

Withe nostr.wine you could, because it also transmits to public relays if you want. And the filter is great:

#[4]

I have your solution here. It pulls content from your follows+their follows on public relays and displays it to you. It also has a broadcast option.

#[3]

Happy to shill you nostr.wine and additional our filter.nostr.wine. More in the note, let me know if you have any questions.

#[2]

Happy to shill you nostr.wine and additional our filter.nostr.wine. More in the note, let me know if you have any questions.

#[4]

Add wss://nostr.wine to get access to the paid relay. Check out this post on filter.nostr.wine - an additional relay we offer to paid nostr.wine members.

#[5]

The more options the better as long as they are presented cleanly.

If you’re interested in paid relays but also want wider reach and more coverage of replies/DMs/profile metadata check out nostr.wine and our additional filter.nostr.wine relay.

#[2]

And if you really wanna change the game try our new filter.nostr.wine relay with broadcast on.

#[5]

So I just need this filter relay, and delete all 4 of those free relays?

I don’t want to dictate how people use it, but yes that is an option. We aggregate content from more public relays than we broadcast to.

Here are the current broadcast relays (updated based on connectivity):

wss://relay.damus.io

wss://nos.lol

wss://relay.current.fyi

wss://nostr.bitcoiner.social

wss://nostr.oxtr.dev

wss://relay.nostr.bg

Alright, I'll try this filter without those free relays. And see what happen☺️.

Thank you for makin this relay, I'll tell you if I enjoy it for some days.

Please do let me know how your experience goes. We have LOTS of ideas on how to improve it but it’s only a few days old.

You need to add filter with your pubkey and broadcast.

For you it would be: wss://filter.nostr.wine/npub1nexs3q29prq0nrkq4legsnzueads8wvnrlg5heaftxhx497yvd3spncpwj?broadcast=true

Ah okay, thx. I thought my connection is just bad😅

Looking good now 🍷

Okay, now. I can see my friends that still on free relays.👍🏼

There you go 🍷🤙

Well, I think I should let you know that I can't see some of my friends that only connect to the feew relays.

Idk if it bcs of the filter relay.

Or because it need to add more forward free relays like from these relays.

wss://relay.nostr.info

wss://nostr.onsats.org

wss://relay.snort.social

Crashed last night…we will investigate why later today…

Back up now.
