I am thinking about setting up a #nostr #relay. Anything I should know before I jump in? #asknostr
Discussion
First considere on long are you planning to maintain the relay creating relays just for funny is not funny at all.
Second check your hardware is good enough for speed? Has good storage?
Third chose a relay image based in a language programm that you are confortable for so you can review the code and solve yourself problems if occurs.
And last dont make the relay for free this will only increases the number of spammers that are blocked in anothers relays
Thanks. I’ve been running Tor relays for a couple of years and nostr seems pretty interesting to me so I want to explore it more.
