Not possible.

The easiest option for running a relay where you can control who has access to read from it and write to it is relay.tools by nostr:nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7cn9wehjumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcprfmhxue69uhkcmmrdd3x77pwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5hsqgrucv52prwm9t7ln7d7w7l07nyrfz0lj7tjrqnav299gtej5frupct0wt7d , and it's still a bit involved to get it set up correctly.

Even then, if you don't want your notes to naturally propagate to other relays when users interact with them, you will need to have nostr:nprofile1qyghwumn8ghj7vf5xqhxvdm69e5k7tcpz4mhxue69uhkzet8d9ejuat50phjummwv5hsqgpm7rrrljungc6q0tuh5hj7ue863q73qlheu4vywtzwhx42a7j9n5zgwjy3 's new lockbox option enabled, which I highly doubt cloud fodder has implemented as an option for his relays, yet.

The next easiest option would probably be nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq3vamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwfjkccte9eshqup0qqsgzfdez8ksa9xmuvqg5zly3nl9e5xqkpvj8nllj9aw06ra4pqq3qcug5u3k 's Nostr Relay Tray, but you still need to have the know-how to expose the port that is running on and set up a reverse-proxy to make it accessible through a domain that you own.

So, it's not that privacy enhancing tools don't exist, or that better ones aren't being worked on. There's just nothing "easy" about them, and it is going to be a while before we see them in any kind of user-friendly form, just like it took a while for Nostr's public interactions to be accessible in a user-friendly way. Arguably, that still has its struggles.

If you want something that "just works" and has the features you are asking for, they are really easy to provide from a centralized platform. But, your trade-off is they own all your data, and while you might have some privacy from other users you want to prevent from seeing your posts, you have ZERO privacy from the platform owner and any advertisers or other entities that they are selling your data to.

So there is an option? I asked that question already. But you said no.

I have given you several that are all more involved than you want to deal with. So effectively, there are no options available for you unless you want to put in some work.

Got it. Thanks for sharing.
