Your inbox and outbox relays are for your followers, not for you.

I know, 🤯

The list tells your followers where to get your posts. Not where your app should send/receive yours.

So, the smaller the list the better.

Your app should have an additional setting, separate from the Inbox/outbox setup, where you can add extra relays to save your posts, in addition to the inbox and outbox relays.

So, if you want to send/receive to 30 relays... fine. But don't ask your followers to download/send from 30 relays for each person they follow.

That's not cool.

How does that interact with things like Gossip that try to calculate a minimal relay set? Seems like it will make the difference between clients that use that idea and those that don't less significant.

Correct. Clients that autocompute would like to see smaller lists to simplify their life.
