Interesting, so not just publishing notes, but also downloading?

That seems to be a strict improvement on privacy and bandwidth.

Yeah, precisely. Iโ€™ve been using nostr on the go in Thailand and Vietnam in the past few months and it eats up my data allowance ๐Ÿ˜”

If we want to onboard the global south to nostr we canโ€™t ask them to download GBs of data over spotty/expensive networks on a daily basis

I like the idea of a self-hosted proxy relay a lot! Apart from the benefits you mentioned, it should increase client performance and probably decrease power consumption if clients have to connect to only one server that in turn connects to all the various relays out there!

Let me know if I can help with testing or anything!

Will do; I named my proxy mobstr precisely because it helps so much with battery and performance on the go

OMG that name is so good

Yes thatโ€™s a great name.
