Goodness gracious 😮💨
I have stayed up past my bedtime and spent hours grappling with my limited understanding of relays. But I think that makes me a more official Nostrich so I'm going to wear it as a badge of honor. I have even read NIPs. I know what a NIP is now! It still didn't make the NIP-177 memes funny to me 🤷♀️
I've been having trouble these past few weeks with a lot of downer stuff and weird comments and I was in my feelings about it (don't worry I am just sensitive it happens). I was feeling like I should leave Nostr and one of my friends talked me through it all and was like oh you're getting spammed and you need better relays.
I thought the more relays the better so I was literally adding relays every time a new suggestion popped up. I had about 30 relays and apparently most of them were known to be terrible for spam. I have cleaned up most of them, I think it's down to 8 now. I've successfully added a couple premium relays, have pokers in the fire for a few more maybe.
This type of work always makes me feel so dumb! I hope to improve and get to be a bit more savvy but also I'm ok with not being a dev myself I think that seems impossible. Y'all are out here doing really neat stuff which is all so foreign to me! Keep up the good work! 🥳
"Kip did you really find a random Internet community you didn't understand even slightly and just barge in with your whole ass name, pictures, and psychonaut adventures?"
Oh yeah! I barge in places. It's a lifestyle!
