you start to see more and more obscure relays the further down the list you go. near the bottom, classics like wss://192.168.0.1 sometimes appear 🤣

Private relays?

If mine keeps getting gang-banged by spammers so hard I might turn it into a friends only relay where I just white-list the npubs of the people I follow.

i assume some people are running private relays that aggregate and filter or broadcast traffic.

Yeah I've seen a few people post about setting up private relays. A private one that only you connect to is easy to set up and doesn't have a lot of resource requirements.

Running a public one is like running a public restroom 🤣

Or private relay which acts as a backup relay for their own notes. I run my relay on my phone ws://127.0.0.1 😅

not a bad idea. i'd probably put one on one of my public Linux servers but with some kind of protection on it so only i can use it.

With the rust version nostr-rs-relay there's a setting in config.toml to whitelist npubs, so you just whitelist your own.
