Yes me 🙏. Is it possible to run ur own relay without a node ?

You do not need a node to run your own relay. You can run one easily if:

1. Open a Github account

2. Open a Railway account

3. Open this link: https://github.com/Cameri/nostream

4. Click on the purple button "Deploy on Railway"

5. On Railway go to settings and you will see your relay URL. Connect to it via your Nostr Client

I also see you do not have a LNURL set up to receive zaps. Need help?

Awesome! Will try this when I get home from work. I assume LNURL means lighteningURL. I don’t know if I have it or

Not but I can receive lightning payments rn. Is it the same thing ?

Is setting up a key pair in a web client (eg astral) safe?

That is what i did at the beginning, nothing is 100% safe. Best is to generate your pair once and not enter your private key on many different web clients.

I recommend Damus for its iOS mobile app. But that's a personal choice
