Most of my private bookmarks on Amethyst have disappeared. Any suggestions? #asknostr

Not sure where Amethyst stores these... I would assume whatever relay you have set as your Private Relay and/or Local Relay. nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq3qamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wd4hk6tcqyprqcf0xst760qet2tglytfay2e3wmvh9asdehpjztkceyh0s5r9cpvx58v can you confirm?
We send to the General Relays + outbox. But some other client might have resetted it if they didn't have the list :(
Oof! So it's kind of like how a follower list can get wiped.
Can it be also sent to a local relay, like Citrine, so it can be recovered in such instances?
It can, but if a new bookmark event from another relay shows up on Citrine, that would erase the older one as well.
Fair, but that might be less likely to happen. For the most part, Citrine is only available for local clients to write to, unless you expose it via Orbot to access it over Tor.
Or you receive the empty event on Amethyst and add a new one. Amethyst would then update Citrine.
Interesting. Didn't know Amethyst was forwarding new events seen on your other relays to others that are missing the event. That's handy, but definitely doesn't help with this particular issue. 😂
Thanks for the replies. I had a look around the relays area but didn't know what to change or not. I reinstalled the app in the off chance that might have brought all the bookmarks back but sadly looks like they are gone. It hurts, I had some good saves in there! Maybe that can be a new feature: bookmarks that follow with your key to any nostr client (if I said that right).
