He has a closed source C++ relay impl he developed. I'm not sure how he's collecting them.
I'd be surprised if no one has a relay with this kind of metric tracking yet. Hmmm
Mostly curious the frequency, types, and shape of all the 'REQ' queries relays get.
Nostr band dev was telling me the read ratios were like 10k read requests for every write.
lol
Announcing booger - a nostr relay in ~500 LoC
Supports NIPs: 1, 2, 4, 9, 12, 15, 16, 20, 28, 33 so far
Doesn't play defense
Supports process and server clustering
I did have on click enabled. Must've done that awhile ago.
Thanks bumi!
It doesn’t have anything to do with moderation
From today's SN newsletter:
If you've been struggling to comprehend nostr, stop thinking about it as decentralized social media and start thinking about it as less centralized social media. Nostr makes application backends interchangeable and encourages using multiple backends simultaneously. That's it. It isn't decentralized in the way Bitcoin is. But, more importantly, it isn't centralized in the way Twitter is either. It's less centralized *enough* that nostriches aren't dependent on a single centralized entity and thus applications built on nostr have significantly altered incentives.
Someone I'm forced to respect (me) once tweeted:
> Unless a technology changes incentives, it merely helps history repeat faster.
Nostr changes incentives. What comes next isn't a digital utopia, but its harder to predict than you think.
Pura Vida!

This happens several times in a browsing session.
I'm running with an OG account on Alby (shortly after you launched) installed on Brave if that affects anything.
#[0] is there a way to prevent needing to reload the Alby extension repeatedly on Snort?
pv make something nostriches want
Haven't push yet. Waiting to finish NIP-01 support fully. It's all fleshed out in ~500 LoC but I need to test it.
I'll post about it when I push it.
Woke up excited to continue hacking on my toy nostr relay, booger.
Today is newsletter day tho so hacking will have to wait.
gm make something bitcoiners want
1. ratio of reads to writes
2. breakdown of costs of running a relay
3. how he views adding more functionality (search/counts) to his relay
4. does he purge events or have plans to purge events
5. what would make running a relay easier
@nostrtechsupport how to get alby to not need to reload in browser clients?
