Need to learn about #relays. What relays should i put in my profile? Now i have add random in it, but does that make sense? #plebchain #introductions

Hello followers and otherwise, I’m not on any #paid #relays, let me know if you are paying or not in the comments. No polling built in yet, so:

👍 paying

👎 not paying

A Hitler rant vid, with him in role of Twitter ceo freaking out about nostr, would be perfect at this moment.

^ this. I love that it's currently "my tribe" of bitcoiners. But for Nostr to really make an impact on society, it'll need to attract the non-bitcoin and nocoiner masses.

Wow, 30GB of spam removed from the server!

So how many relays is considered acceptable in a client? I have 20+ and wonder if it's overkill 🤔. Asking a friend..

#nostr #relay

Why aren't altcoiners moving to Nostr?

They're used to bribing centralized entities to integrate their coin. Exchanges list them, websites cover them, wallets add them. Even Twitter has the NFT profile pics. But they can't do that on Nostr.

And further, the Lightning integration means they have to use Bitcoin! The sad fact is that for all their developers, altcoins don't have anything like lightning. And they know if they come here, they're going to need to convert some of their stash.

It'll be fun to watch the VCs try to downplay Nostr's significance as they try to protect their bags. But it won't work. An actual decentralized network is forming and their centralized crap won't work here.

Let them have centralized platforms. Decentralized money belongs on a decentralized platform.

My Amethyst client was a little slow loading notes and other stuff so I decided to clean up my list of relays which seemed to provide me with no posts. However, it seems I can't see some comments now on some posts. Can anyone recommend quality relays that I can add to my list here? Preferably non-paid ones. I already paid for eden.nostr.land

What is your Favourite nostr client and why?

I'm not sure what you mean... We all are using Lightning here for everything because it's easy, fast, and cheap payments. Nostr and Lightning only go hand in hand right now because that's what has been built.

Then don't use it. No one is forcing you 😉 I'm sure we'll see a Stacks or Ethereum relay at some point. They can have their own corners of Nostr. And we'll have ours, Shitcoin free 😉
