nostr:nprofile1qqs9df4h2deu3aae83fmet5xmrlm4w5l9gdnsy3q2n7dklem7ezmwfc6c32nl Hi guys...
I'm running StartOS and am trying to connect to my Nostr relay.
Instructions say to copy the ws.
.onion address and paste into Nostr client.When I try that with nostr:nprofile1qqs9xtvrphl7p8qnua0gk9zusft33lqjkqqr7cwkr6g8wusu0lle8jcq9vhrm it requests a wss address and will not accept my ws private address.
Ideas? Thanks!
This is a hard one and exactly why I don’t recommend running nostr relays on start9 OS.
In order to write that that kind of relay, you have to use a tor vpn (which are extremely slow) and I don’t recommend it.
Here is a video I made about running your own #haven nostr relay with a virtual machine.
If you don’t want to do a virtual machine, I would recommend a computer like raspberry pi for a personal relay so that the data is segregated.
primal probably doesnt support .onion URLS. works with amethyst, nostrudel, coracle. amethyst has built-in tor client so i recommend that one. nostrudel you can self-host on your start9 as an availablr community marketplace service, so odds are if ur accessing nostrudel service from start9 you already got tor set up and running so itll work at that point.
Try Amethyst, or Start9 hosted Nostrudel.
Check out the instructions. Many apps/browsers consider "ws" insecure even though it's not with a .onion URL. There are ways around this with Firefox, but if the app itself does not allow it, there is no real solution except to wait for StartOS v0.3.6 when you can put your relay on a clearnet domain
