What’s the best way to solve the issue of not seeing the posts of people I follow because I’m not connected to their relays? Is there a tool that shows me which relays I need to connect to to show me the posts of everyone I follow?

Sorry, that just shows where things are coming from. Just connect some of the relays they connect to.
I would if I knew which ones they were…
I just noticed that I hadn’t seen any post from a certain account for a long time, so I tried to find which relays they are connected to. The list of relays didn’t show on Damus and Primal, but Iris did show them, so I connected to one of them and that fixed it, but now I’m wondering how many more posts I’m not seeing because I’m not connected to the right relays.
That is one of the tricky parts of Nostr. Maybe some more relay aggregators like nostr.wine or you could look at some of the relay sites and maybe find some more popular ones? I often have sketchy cell service, so sometime I don't think my notes hit all the relays I have.
It should be possible to have a more targeted approach though. Some of my follows are probably not connected to any of the relays I’m connected to. I just need a list of which relays those accounts are connected to so I can have a “complete” set of relays for my follows list.
This is the reason some of the clients are moving to the gossip model, which should fix the issue.
