Depends, personally i would recommend it using both but you need to set their settings properly. In Amethyst, i can set all relays enabled for my home feed while only enable some for global feed (paid relays + filter.nostr.wine + nostr.mom + nos.lol ). nostr.mom (more strict spam filter) and nos.lol have some spam filter, lesser spam compared to another free public relay

Thanks for all the great info.

Welcome, glad if it's helpful. Please, help other users answer this common questions if you found it later 😅

I paid for puravida.

I tried to pay for eden & it didnt charge me. So I think the eden already connected to iris is paid/free somehow. Thanks again.

Ok thanks for the insight. Im gonna add a few more paid tonight.

What flows into your feed,especially the global feed & who sees the notes you write depends on which relays you use. At the moment, it's all experimentation to see which ones work for you. A combination of free & paid relays seems to work for most people - it also depends on which client you use

If you're new and don't want to pay for relay subscription yet, I'd suggest

wss://nostr.mom

wss://nostr-pub.wellorder.net

wss://nostr.wine

(Wine is a paid relay but it's free to read posts from)
