Normal clients have 2 or 3 tcp sockets open. But these aws VMs are doing something else. This was on the free relay.
Reckless server admin maintenance in progress lol
Relay will be back in a sec
Think the damus relay is the biggest one
If it gets pc link support it’ll be super slick. Still pretty good otherwise. I decided to get the new htc vive.
Yep. It’s their insanely good UX accelerating adoption that is appreciated
I have a fully self hosted stack but there’s no self hosted zaps yet. We’re super early with nostr and having an app like theirs keep up is 🤙⚡️
nip-57 won’t be the definitive zap spec long term, the changes are going continue to be rapid
The paid relay has not moved. He’s pointing at the address of the free relay I run
I run two relays. One is paid and the other is free
That’s the old subdomain for the free relay.
⚡ bitcoiner.social - pay2relay includes NIP-05☑️
🆓 offchain.pub - used to be nostr.bitcoiner.social (OG free relay)

Think I finally have a view into how many people are using offchain.pub (the free relay). The Sockstat metric from node_exporter shows how many TCP connections there are in a particular state. The yellow on the graph means "in-use" and probably roughly correlates to open websockets.

I know bitdevs isn't a nostr meetup, but I hope we can briefly discuss a couple things this week:
- when cancel culture comes at nostr, it's relay operators like us on the front lines. What then?
- base64 on nostr is a thing, so relays will become file hosting service in addition to what they do now.

Which clients were you using? I’ve been floating between 3: damus, amethyst, and snort
The relays have always supported zap events. It's your wallet and nostr client that need to support it
peeps are using base64 already
