I cannot see the events I create with Primal desktop nor the Primal iOS app on my private Umbrel relay. I believe this is a Primal issue, since I can see the events from my Damus and Nostur iOS apps. What to do?

Is primal even a real nostr client? I thought it just talked to their custom backend.

Yeah I’m not sure. They do the work of fetching from their backend for performance, but I thought it wrote to your relays.

Not withstanding their validity, my expectations are to see the events I create posted to my private relay regardless of which client I might use. In my life, I have had to adjust my expectations for many reasons. Perhaps there is a reason to do so now, I don’t know.

I am not an expert on their methodology, but I know it is different from a standard client, and is so on purpose.

My own designs sit somewhere between the two, but I believe primal leans very heavily server-side.
