we need diveristy in relays in the first place. can someone tell me is there any special relays running in nostr? by special I mean, not trying to store all the data for all the users.

nostr:npub1pages5yhmncmmfxuza9f9fx68fju0nxnewtlffzrapsufax5mv0sznuw9d is one such relay. There are a few others.
but until is trivial/common-place for users to be able to switch relays with minimal cost relays won’t specialize much further.
We also need a few changes to make clients not even attempt to request some data from certain relays (eg purplepages will never serve you kind:1s so ideally clients wouldn’t even ask for them)
