Is this an iOS user? I can see they only have 4 relays which makes me think they generated their npub with nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955. This is becoming a problem, because users are not onboarding with enough relays. Other clients bundle more relays from the start so new users don’t get discouraged and give up when they can’t see anything in their feed.
nostr:npub1d58kx4xhpgsyqe78kgjtyyqxll23t88p045ts40uxqauwh2jmjgsfudtwd is new to nostr. Please show some love.

nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s What’s the reasoning behind the small Damus default relay set? Can this be expanded to make it easier for new users to get up and running?
because they all disappear after a few months
Its costing me $500 a month to maintain a server on damus’ bootstrap relay list, any relay I add to it ends up going away, probably because they cant handle the costs and traffic
Interesting. Thanks for the insight.
What if there were a simple onboarding flow that took the user to a screen where they could select new relays that aren’t part of the bootstrap set?
My idea for this was to just have a url handler so anyone could onboard damus users into some specific relay set. Would be really good for companies onboarding their employees, or plebs onboarding their friends onto their friend relays.
Often what I do when onboarding a friend is offer to sponsor their first few paid relays. If that could be done in a way where they don’t have to manually enter them, it would speed up the whole process.

Go find and add more relays.
