I’m glad to hear your thoughts, and it made me think more seriously.
If you want to replace 10 relays with an aggregated relay to save bandwidth, you should choose the bostr relay.
Currently, most relays use the same code and data, so I don’t think there is any difference between users selecting a few relays themselves and directly using a centralized platform like X.
The goal of nostr-relay-tray is to enable everyone to easily run their own relay and have the right to save and broadcast their own events.
You can run a hub with your friends to ensure you have your own events. The cost of running a hub is low (even free) because it only forwards data without storing it, and it is not used by many people. Additionally, hubs can set password, so you can restrict who can join your hub. For testing purposes, my hub has no restrictions set.
