I try to bring up interesting topics of conversation even though everyone doesn't give a shit about them 😅.
I don't know if damus internally keeps some kind of cache of the contacts, it has been like a regression to days ago even in the relays added.
This is very relative, do you know a priori how many people will connect to your relay? It could be from a raspberry pi with 4gb of ram to a server with 48 cores and 1tb of ram.
Yes, you can find all the information is a github
What wallet do you use? I usually get donations for the shit I wrote haha
At the moment after tor, but since the ukrainian war tor is under constant attack and is very saturated. Embassy is looking for other options. At the moment I can't tell you what idea they have other than allowing access after clearnet.
In embassyos (start9) there is a relay in beta.
Relays are going to be monetized if or if. Now everything is ideal, in a while it will not be so much, however the protocol allows many possible options, such as private relays. It would be interesting if a user could save all his content in his own relay and issue a note publishing the relay and whoever follows him could consult this relay for example. This would mitigate a lot of centralized load.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
No, the original node must be EmbassyOS, although if you are interested there is a procedure to migrate from umbrel.
Tip Bitcoin Node/Lightning/Thunderhub/LNBits
If you don't have a raspberry and you don't have a specific computer or you want to isolate yourself from the hardware, you can mount EmbassyOS(start9) in a virtual machine. With gnome boxes it works very well but you can also use VirtualBox or any hypervisor you can think of. It is convenient that the hypervisor allows passthrough to add an external disk.
EmbassyOS allows you to add an external disk in its configuration and also has recovery tools, the data stays on this external disk and if you need to transfer the data to another virtual or physical machine with Embassy it is very easy.
I add manual with all the possibilities of recovery and transfer.

Social network data is also used to obtain trends and human behavioral data.
It is clear that this is the risk of writing on a public board but what I am getting at is that Nostr will not prevent certain practices that have been used on facebook.
These are just thoughts out loud.
I invite you all to follow the start9 project and its developers, they have an amazing Sovereign computing project.

In this case the relays would know your phone number and any third party could collect this data.
Nostr is a decentralized protocol that is not distributed and is not intended to be private.
One thought I just had (here https://twitter.com/3d_nout/status/1615431320343044120 ).
Should people optionally associate their phone number with Nostr accounts (maybe somehow on demand encrypted)?
It would enable integration with Signal - and Signal is (afaik) superior in terms of privacy.
#[0] #[1] WDYT?
As you rightly say, due to its architecture I don't think Nostr is ideal to replace private messaging, let alone integrate with signal.
For private messaging, p2p solutions like Berty or Keet are better, where no metadata is stored.
It is the right thing to do, for the record, I only put these graphs as a curiosity. The price of bitcoin is linked to its adoption as easy as that, more adoption equals more price. Like any other technology it follows an "S" growth curve.
And for me bitcoin is much more than a price, Bitcoin is dignity, Bitcoin is not living on your knees, Bitcoin is shouting fuck the system.
I have not tried it but I think this one:
