Good morning all!
I haven't felt like posting lately. We had to say goodbye to my sweet Baby Bear on Thursday. She was part of our family for one day shy of 16 years. She was super smart and could communicate extremely well. She told me her name in the pound as soon as I saw her. She was always near us and the lack of her presence has left a huge hole in our house. I am so grateful for every minute that we got to spend with her.

Beautiful cat, rip 💔
Yes that would be great, visible to people and easy to direct them to the supported marketplaces by helping listing the respective relays in the clients.
I also hope to see a comprehensive list of relays of what they advertise as spam filters. It took a random post of a relay owner for me to get their policies based either on repetitive messages, npubs or IPs. It is up to the relays to do so and naturally people would like to know how's that being handled so if there is a way to include that in the relay info, it's def a point of interest.
I wanted to share a project I've been working on in my spare time: https://relay.guide
The goal is to help people discover relays to join. Right now it can help find relays by:
1. Paid / free
2. Name or keyword (weedstr, damus, etc)
3. By the recommended relays of people you follow or like. (https://relay.guide/relay-lists)
You can also look at each relay's metadata. I also added a tool that may be useful to devs to be able to query the events on that relay by kind or author pubkey, etc (https://relay.guide/inspector)
I tried to make it easy to copy relay info so you can update your relays if you find an interesting relay through this.
It's similar to nostr.watch but I'm hoping to add some novel capabilities soon:
1. Discovering relays by the relay lists of others
2. Discover by relay community preferences and/or language tags (most don't publish this yet, but I'm going to reach out to folks and advocate for it)
3. Add the ability to manage your relay list from this app (auth with Alby or similar and add / remove relays right from the discovery tools)
The code is open source so feel free to log issues or make suggestions or contribute! https://github.com/gregorygmwhite/nostr-relay-explorer

When I was starting on #nostr there was this small enterpreneur who was trying to advertise their merch to people directly on here 5-6 months ago. They shared their frustration about how to do so effectively, and since it was about expiring food items I suggested back then to them to use nostr.watch and connect to more local to their location relays and there may be a better success with advertising to people who use those and actually purchase (ln bits was still in beta).
#zapvertisement may work to some extent globally, however a future list of relays that support or direct to specific (local or not) communities and marketplaces(nip15) maybe something a lot of people including me may like to see.
A list of relays that support marketplaces would be great both for merchants and customers and would be good to see such a relay-list when gets there, so this project has potential 🤙

I have some #amethyst questions today. One of them being:
Is there a Hashtags tab along with follows, followers, notes, replys, zaps, bookmarks...in any of Amethyst updates? If not will you please add it? I want to know which #hashtags my favorite plebs follow.
Thanks
(The other questions are asked in other notes, about starting community and translating amethyst)
The followed tags? 🤔 it has been there for awhile with the versions. If I can see yours, you can see others (if loads for you)
Catios happen when your owners #bitcoin.

You may enjoy the #zapvertisement here when happening. As of shitposting, ah well 😅
