Nostr Web Client

I'm newer to running my own #nostr relay and looking for some advice from #asknostr, please.

I have a private one set up via my nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll, would it be worth it to set up a public relay so I don't need to connect via Tor on my mobile? does operating a public relay open me up to some additional risks? sorry if dumb question.

Good question!

I'm a n00b with #Nostr, but I think if you have a public relay, people would need to add it to their list to see you, well at least before the new feature, which unifies millions of relays, arrives. :D

i have a public relay running on my home server so that everyone can read from it. however, i only allow myself and my wife's pubkeys to write to it. that works for me.

Awesome thanks! that's what I was thinking I wanted to set up for myself.

you'll need to do some port forwarding on your router and/or Star9 itself or another device.

Thanks, are there any resources out there that you know of? New to all of this a bit of a learning curve haha. But I enjoy it.
