It's easy to run your own relay. I run mine on a VPS that costs about $30 annually. Even if other relays don't accept my notes, that relay always will. Many clients already support outbox, so the need for big main relays is getting to be less.
This isn't even an issue if your not worried about wide availability and just want your own community. Just have a relay for your community.
