Great info
Jumble is an interesting client that I haven't played around with much. Dev is nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq3vamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwfjkccte9eshqup0qqsgzfdez8ksa9xmuvqg5zly3nl9e5xqkpvj8nllj9aw06ra4pqq3qcug5u3k who also made possibly the easiest to install relay app for desktop: Nostr Relay Tray. Great guy, and really responsive, though I think his timezone is opposite of mine here in the western US, because I usually don't hear from him until the next day, and it was like 2am here when he replied. π
I am definitely getting your reply. Nostr.wine is a great paid relay. I would encourage you to look into their other relay offerings as well. In particular, filter.nostr.wine, which is kind of like a personalized web-of-trust relay, that allows you to see notes from users you follow plus users they follow in your Global feed, and it pulls those notes from a variety of relays without you needing to have them in your relay list. Additionally, it blasts the notes you write out to several relays, giving you a bit better reach, without having to add all those relays to your list of outbox relays.
If you don't decide to subscribe to filter.nostr.wine, I would recommend adding a couple more popular public relays to your list of "outbox" relays. That is, the ones you write your notes to. A lot of users read from those relays, or they use a relay that pulls notes in from those relays and filters them for spam. If you only post to nostr.wine, only those who have added it as a relay they read from will see your notes, unless their client supports the outbox model, which is a whole other conversation...
I would also recommend adding a popular web-of-trust relay to the relays you read from. Something like wss://wot.utxo.one. nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7ct9va5hxtn4w3ux7tn0dejj7qg4waehxw309an8yetwwvh82arcduhx7mn99uqzpckv7l8jqspl8u4y54dn9rcduwlrs4v2040nxce0m2h0cunvrj8tkauy96 's web-of-trust relay is likely the most popular, because he really pioneered this relay type back when Nostr was being spam attacked late last August and early September. Web-of-trust relays only allow users within the relay owner's web-of-trust to post to them, meaning they are virtually spam free, since most folks don't intentionally follow spammers.
Discussion
Yes, SUPER helpful info about the relays! Thank you!!
Make sure you have damus.io and primal.net for read and write relays those are the most popular ones everyone uses
Primal hates me. And there's no log out option now. I'm using Damus on my iPhone to get notifications, because it's the only Nostr app that works for me to get notifications. But I use my Android, not my iPhone which I was planning to sell, and I primarily work on a desktop.
I was also planning to switch to GoogleOS from iMac because Apple isn't great at handling multiple live news streams which I need for news.
For now, Coracle and Ditto are working the best for my content (breaking news including short videos uploaded via desktop) even though half of my posts are still missing.
Thank you so much to all for your help!
Have you tried: https://damus.io/notedeck? Itβs damus on desktop
