They kept saying it's the relays, but nostr:npub1wqfzz2p880wq0tumuae9lfwyhs8uz35xd0kr34zrvrwyh3kvrzuskcqsyn and I were like

anyone who claims that AI helps them write software, except for summarising documention, is lying, either for pay or because tehy don't want to seem like a grumpy kitty

It's also true that connecting to one relay is lightning fast, but waiting for data streams to resolve across several relays can quickly slow things down.

and it is kinda worse when each realy is basically sending the same data too

Yeah a good SDK ought to be able to optimize those issues away.

Well, we can just write to/from thecitadel for docs and to/from theforest for social stuff, since they both aggregrate.

If people want to use other relays, the performance is then their problem.
