Paid Relay Update:

I've always said it's hard to gauge a public relay. It's hard to tell if it works well. It's hard to tell if it's fast. That basically, it's like throwing spaghetti at a wall. I even once wrote a funny story about this.

Since paid relays launched, I've been using the following paid relays:

wss://eden.nostr.land

wss://puravida.nostr.land

wss://atlas.nostr.land

wss://relay.orangepill.dev

wss://nostr.milou.lol

wss://nostr.wine

wss://filter.nostr.wine

Over the past two months, I've not had any major problems using them. atlas.nostr.land was down for about two weeks, but #[0] fixed the issue and it's been fine since. nostr.milou.lol was down for about a week, but #[1] fixed that issue and it's been fine since.

All of the above I will vouch for and say that they've been great and that I am going to continue to use them. 🤙

What kind of paid relay are they? Pay to post to them and only get events from paying customers thus avoiding spam? Or pay to get all the content you want from all the other relays but using a single websocket, only? I want the latter.

They are all pay to write, free to read.

Thanks for confirming this.

I want to use and offer pay to read/write.

Is it Haram to do other server side stuff I'm addition to relays? Image processing or db write read,stuff like that? Nostr does the text side of things doesn't it? Do notes get sent to a db?&&____;;;
