This is very true: nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqh4yvjqytwcl7g3x2hwaxmndemwugdvscfsfp3yxhmecaazsmfdaqy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcqyz2yjx9fmxdwjj4kjmsv8md676yq28hgkrny2c6ddpxlpnl5sn0fujfrkvn

I remember that some time ago someone asked random people to look into some buried settings page of some app that showed a list of relay URLs with cryptic icons in front of each. Since the random people didn't understand a thing, the general conclusion was that relays should be even more hidden from users, never to see the light of day.

Of course that conclusion came from a confirmation bias. In fact an equally valid conclusion (and, well, the only acceptable conclusion unless you want to discard Nostr as a failed idea completely, in which I wouldn't blame you) is that relays have to be displayed more, not hidden, in some way that allows users to somehow, perhaps slowly, learn about them. More experiments have to be made.

See, for example, this comment: nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzp89qh469qapddgsrr8qw84xx08y7q34fm3cw3m64c2g9ufq9ydqtqyv8wumn8ghj76twvfhhstnjv4kxz7tn9ekxzmny9uqsuamnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dshsqgxlycuuy25k5zv4u9xqnve7kphf8xge9c7a00hplqcc7d7f3v5jwg7tr9vj

I love that #Amethyst shows on which relays and the icon of the ones the note is written on, super cool and good info, also fhe broadcast button, tou can tellit works when you use it to broadcast notes of users that aren't connected to your relay list
