Ditto. Want this

May be worth checking out the follows on nostr:npub1sctag667a7np6p6ety2up94pnwwxhd2ep8n8afr2gtr47cwd4ewsvdmmjm on like coracle and seeing what relays are being used there?

Wow, I had never heard of FreeFrom. Who are they?

Seems to be the most used app in china, afaik (?)

That's all I know tho. Maybe someone knows more #asknostr lol :)

yeah, many Chinese language users are using FreeFrom.

I am asking the same question for my wife πŸ˜‚

Let me know if you find any!

Last year there was a relay.nostrch.land that ran Chinese, but it has stopped working now. I haven't found any new Chinese relays yet.

you can use freefrom app, and use content language filter on plaza, add δΈ­ζ–‡ for it, then you can see many chinese language users there.

chinese users normally can not connect to popular relays such as relay.damus.io/relay.nostr.band and so on, they all banned by GFW.

Deploying relays in mainland China is not a good idea because Chinese users will not trust relays running in mainland China and are worried that they are phishing relays deployed by the government. Therefore, generally Chinese users will use VPNs to connect to popular relays or themselves Deploy relays outside mainland China. There are currently relatively few relays deployed. Some Chinese users in Taiwan and Japan have deployed relay servers, and some users have deployed proxy forwarding type relays through the bostr project (for example: https://bostr.online/ ) to solve the problem of GFW blocking popular relays.

There are no local Chinese relays that I'm aware of. Perhaps there are some operating behind the scenes, but Nostr hasn't been picked up all the widely for the time being.
