WTF do I do with these relays in #Amethyst?

You are supposed to do your research and figure out which relays you want to:

1. Hold your notes for others to see (Public Outbox/Home)

2. Receive people's reactions to your notes (Public inbox)

3. Receive DMs from everybody (Private DM Inbox)

4. Store your private data, like drafts, app settings, etc (Private Storage).

5. Locally cache information (Local Relays)

6. Do search for you (Search Relays)

7. Authorize the app to download posts from (General List).

You can use Nostr without setting them up, but I can guarantee you will be losing your posts, missing DMs, missing Zap notifications, and make your private posts public until you set it up.

Is there any FOSS I can setup locally to handle most of this?

Vitor Pamplona 1y ago

not yet.

IDK, I think it has become far too complicated... 😐

Got a fucking walkthrough for this buddy?

He's busy writing code.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

At the outset .. default relays cover everything.. so you are covered ..

For fine tuning .. you may want certain relays to do certain things for you .

Relays are hosted by people with specific objectives in mind .. some want to develop new features (to support new NIPs) .. some want to make money .. in nutshell ..and a vague anology .. you are choosing different services from different providers ..

Also keep in mind ..blasting events to as many relays as possible is not a good startegy .. simply because you are replicating the data at many places .. speed and data .. plus if you want to delete things it gets harder ..

Getting to a fine balance is kinda hard .. but that discovery is where #nostr fun is .. once the model gets clear in mind .. we start seeing that social is just a starting usecase .. nostr is plumbing for a new internet ..

In essence, nostr is a market place for data services .. you can choose from hundreds of relays ..and 100s of clients ..to suit your needs .. hardware etc .. even start your own ..

Once you curate an experience for you , you can provide it to others .. build your own tools around it .. its like a chess board .. simple in the beginning , becomes more and more complex as the game progresses :-)

Can you use Citrine as private and local?

Enki 1y ago

Yes.

this will hopefully keep the ____ persons out of nostr 🤪

Exactly the first thing I think about when I wake up. Nostr settings.

Vitor Pamplona 1y ago

no need to be the first thing, but at some point you will need to handle it. Self custody has responsibilities. No one will solve this problem for you without selling you and your data for profit.

Don't honor low lives by responding to them.

steepdawn974 1y ago

And less than 1% of users do that. 99% just just hit Subscribe > All on whichever top 20 relays their client recommends.

NostrNaught 1y ago

I didn't do this... Am I making people angry? How can I learn the right-e-ous ways of nostr?
