Yes, I was checking that 🤯

Are you planning to give more transparency to the relay management as an option later?

Yes, it's on our roadmap. But our feeling is that, right now, most people just want clients to work out of the box. For this reason we started this way (automatic management). But of course we'll add manual management soon.

Automatic management is the way forward imo. Most people won't care too much about which relays they use. But to do that properly is a nice to have at this stage

Manual management is still a must have in the long run to ensure censorship resistance.

The client should be able to find relays with the 'censored' data through the protocol, rather than the user having to intervene. Manual will be there but it's like one of those mobile settings pages only 1% of people use

I do not think clients should be choosing relays for users. clients and relays were intentionally designed to be separate entities. having clients choose relays for users erodes that separation (and makes users helpless once real censorship comes)

Sounds like a recipe for centralization if done poorly

It's worse if everybody just uses the same 10 relays I see all the time. The client sees a lot of other lesser-known relays and can actually help to decentralise by using them.

i don't think clients should be tracking what relays people use...
