oh, i was joking about finding a way. (oops, sorry for accidental repost - can't undo it)
wow, okay, after i added a distinction between "connected but never responded" and "unable to connect" on https://nrcheck.tigerville.no, there are a LOT of relays that won't respond at all to a query even after 10 seconds. not sure how to handle a situation where a relay literally won't respond to the first query it gets... https://void.cat/d/Qdpmc74zNZjfePUuKb19KR.webp
...aaand we won't find out, because eden.nostr.land is still an unreachable when i check it on https://nrcheck.tigerville.no
i suddenly received a payment receipt DM for eden.nostr.land that's several days out of date. it says it was sent on 7 March but it arrived just now. does this mean that i'm getting published to eden.nostr.land now? let's find out...
i tried to run a small business once and i hired a friend, and the problem was that he wasn't doing his job, so things became difficult. also, some years ago, a friend of mine hired me for the Bitcoin exchange he was setting up, and there was conflict over wages, and it ruined the friendship.
inconvenient thing: being friends with someone and being their employer or employee is usually not compatible.
#[0] what regional mirror do i get assigned to when i use filter.nostr.wine or nostr.wine from a Norwegian IP address?
author of snort.social isn't responding, so i did what i probably should've done to begin with: create an issue ticket on GitHub: https://github.com/v0l/snort/issues/423
PopulationCoin, in which the total number of coins is always limited to the peak world population
don't know about the worst, but The Celestine Prophecy is up there
guess why this relay is the fastest one for me
it would be somewhat funny if the checker awarded two "prizes" for fastest and slowest contestant 😅
the https://nrcheck.tigerville.no relay reach checker now produces 3 lists (found, not found, unreachable) and also response times for each relay. https://void.cat/d/JYvDwSTTSMbekimU92eSH3.webp
no, a shorter post where i forgot to name the tool that i deleted
#[0] would be great if the Global timeline let you select relays to see instead of having a dropdown.
hm, snort.social occasionally seems to forget that i have chosen filter.nostr.wine (aggregate proxy) for the global timeline.
snort.social doesn't cache anything so you're seeing things loading on the fly from the network more. maybe not as elegant as iris.to but kind of interesting to watch in a way.
last time i checked, "turn off" wasn't an option, only "adjust" - and i don't just mean the filter. snort.social seems to show me little things that iris.to ignores, and it seems to notice everything a bit quicker.
if you've got a better source of relays that are working and it has an API than i can use...
i only take the figures from nostr.watch and it says there are about ~380 that are online, with numerous others offline.
