Is there a dummies guide on how to run a relay?

What kind of relay do you want to run? For how many people? Public? Private?

I'd like to start private and small, moreso to learn and understand it more. Eventually go public and wild. 😄

I used Start9 on a RasPi for a private relay. But, it requires you to use TOR on your phone, which made my client, Amethyst, really slow.

Maybe there's a way around this?

Nah, tor is slow as shit.

Update: I set my phone's VPN to split tunneling, and made an exception for Amethyst, so it doesn't use my VPN. Then, I set Orbot to only use TOR for Amethyst.

Seems to be a lot faster. We'll see how my phone battery holds up.
