Pushes the content onto other relays you’re on, if it’s not already there. It really should be automatic, rather than a manual thing in clients.

Yeah I kind of figured that's what it did. But I wasn't sure because I felt like it does that automatically already?

It uploads it to your relays. Helps paper over reliability issues and helps deal with the common neighbor requirement.

Cool thank you!

If you additionally connect to more relays, when broadcasting a note, it will be posted to those new relays too.
