Nostr Web Client

I said it before and I'll say it again and again: we need ideas to fix the huge traffic issue with noste.

My computer starts downloading events with 20 MB/s whenever I open a new nostr tab. That's unacceptable. If we want the world to use nostr (not just the US), clients need to work in a low bandwidth environment.

Think smaller.

Have you tried my thing?

Try clear your relay list in your client and try to only connect to a bouncer. You could connect mine, which is public and there are peoples using it: wss://bostr.lecturify.net

List of relays that are being proxied / bounced is available at https://bostr.lecturify.net

this is probably compatible with lol but incompatible with mom because mom looks at the IP when rate limiting.

You could still try to manually connect and set it as "write relay" in client if broadcasting in bostr does not work properly.
