So I'm trying to understand the mechanics of nostr. Doesn't nostr need servers to work as well? Like a relay is just a websocket server right? And to connect to the server I need to know the domain or ip address of the server? Like doesn't wss://relay.damus.io/ need a valid HTTPS/TLS certificate since it's working on wss? And doesn't it have a domain, which is damus.io?
