Yeah something that confused me when I joined is I wasn’t sure which relays to choose, because I didn’t know the difference. I pretty much licked them at random. And that’s largely because there wasn’t much difference, and still isn’t. But that should change with time.

Yeah I was assuming it was giving me different content when I joined.

I do wonder about the likely scenario of relays becoming what we assume they will become / how they are spoken of becoming. Would have to be something like a banned subreddit or Alex Jones or something ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯. How far off that would be? Doesn't seem like it'll happen any time soon to me.

Not sure how true this is, but I was told that it is possible private relays already exist. We just wouldn't know about them if they were ultra private. Maybe clients would know(?) Maybe, they (like you lol) made their own clients. No idea of the veracity of this tho.

There’s not much incentive to do it yet because most clients don’t have good relay management tools. Being able to easily switch between sets of relays should help with this.
