Very interesting, thank you.

To what degree is it decentralized?




This is probably the reason Nostr makes an appearance in the policy then.


I'll make sure it is sell-out proof then :)


im getting a tweet not found. was that tweet from jack deleted?



Per my understanding: most important functionality is implemented in the client; clients can connect to any relay server, and any number of relay servers; messages can be relayed by any number of relay servers; and anyone can spool up a new relay server at any time.


Ok. I will definitely have a look.

My decision so far was to go and run a one-person Mastodon instance but this sounds intriguing.


I was able to get nostr-rs-relay[0] running in <5 minutes on fly.io. Got all my client apps and those of ~5 friends writing to and posting from it. Hasn't crashed yet.
