Nostr Web Client

I have a question for those who know NOSTR well.

Is it possible (I'm using Iris now with default nodes) to manually chose which node each note is written to? One thought I had, since I'm considering getting a Start9 server at work and possibly at home, is having a personal node. My idea is posting public notes to public nodes, but being able to post private notes to my private node and only those to whom I give access can see the private notes. Is that something possible with NOSTR? Is that something Iris or another client can do? Is that something that someone would be interested in implementing?

Great question! I'd like to know as well.

Yes, you can. On Iris; go to Settings, Network, and then select the relays that you want to post to. Anyone you give access to could rebroadcast the notes to a larger set of relays. So it's only as private as your trusted circle.

You could also just DM yourself and it would be encrypted.

It would be nice if you could easily do it at each note rather than having to go to settings and change everything before going back to post a note and then going back to settings to set it back to the default.

You'd have to take that up with the developer. But you could use a different client such as Amethyst or Plebster and have that client only set to your personal relay. If you also added that relay to Iris you could view it everywhere and all your public lists would be backed up on your personal relay.

Thanks for the idea.
