Are you on primal or amethyst? You have way too many inbox/outbox relays. If you are on Primal go to log in, click relays and pick 3 that you are SURE to have all of your posts and mark them as WRITE. Then pick 3 (it can be the same) that ANYONE can write into (no paid relays) and select READ.

Just keep the General Relay list on Amethyst as is. Damus will use that part.
I would love to know I'm not doing something dumb with my profile
I would love that ✍️
Remove you.nostr1.com from your DM Relay list.
Add nos.lol and nostr.mom to your Outbox AND Inbox lists.
Your Public Inbox and Public Outbox are very bad. Delete the one that is there today and add:
nos.lol , nostr.mom and relay.nostr.bg on PUBLIC OUTBOX and PUBLIC INBOX.
I dont understand... Why not?
I would appreciate a setup recommendation or general guidelines. Still unsure what is good and what isn’t.
Remove snort's relay from your INBOX.
If you are paying for Snort's relay, move it to the OUTBOX.
I use multiple clients but mostly nostrudel, primal and amethyst.

Thanks, appreciate it
How about mine?
Way too many inbox/Outbox.
Pick 3 Outbox relays that you know have ALL your posts. Or pick the 3 that youi know will not delete your stiff.
Pick 3 Inbox relays that are free so any one can write for you.
They can be the same. But Outbox can be paid, inbox must be free (otherwise you don't get notifications).
Truly appreciate your help/review @Vitor Pamplona! 🙏
Cheers and thanks a ton!
Really good. No need to change anything.
You are the first that I didn't need to adjust.
Woohoo!
Are you paying for relay.snort.social? If not, remove it from your Public Outbox and Inbox lists. The rest is great.
Way too many Outbox and Inbox relays. Pick just 3. nos.lol, nostr.mom, relay.damus.io look good for both.
If you are paying for any relay, it goes to Outbox.
The rest seems fine.
I'd appreciate some expert advice - I have only a midwit understanding of nostr realys
Pretty please... 🙂

Using Damus and Ditto.
Too many inbox/Outbox.

Remove nostr.wine from inbox
Remove purplepages.es from Outbox.
Click Default on the Search List's button to make @ tagging work better.
because if you have to nostr fails for everyone except techies
Looks all good. I wouldn't use relay.nostr.band as Outbox, but it's up to you.
Delete from outbox/inbox.
purplepages
cheeserobot.org
tunestr.io
yuhr.org
Hit the Search list's button to make @ tagging work better
🙏🙏🙏
All good. I would go to the recommended section and add utxo and mostr's relay to the general section (just press the button).
🙏🏻 thanks
127 relays??? WTF?
Seriously, the client is only connecting to the first 30 relays.. The rest is just consuming your data plan.
Pick 3 for inbox and Outbox. Leave aobut 20 on the General list.
If you want delete all the General List and add relays from the Recommended section back into it. The recommendations come from your Follows.
👆
👌
If you are paying for nostr.wine, keep that one on Outbox and choose another 2.
Pick three free relays for the Public Inbox.
The rest looks fine.

I wouldn't use citrine for Search. I would just use the default items there.
If you want DM notifications directly on amethyst, add nos.lol to your Private Inbox. This makes your DMs visible to others.
Yes paid for that one. Would just having the Haven inbox suffice?
Add nos.lol, nostr.mom and relay.damus.io to your PUBLIC OUTBOX and PUBLIC INBOX.
The rest is good.
Remove Eden from inbox. And make sure you are paying for Snort's relay in the Outbox.
So where should filter.nostr.wine go if it's not in outbox? I noticed in the article you reposted earlier that it's a terrible idea to put this is in inbox too 🤔
Also, you're doing gods work. Thanks! 🎉
I would add another one for redundancy, like nos.lol
Public Inbox is wrong. Delete all of them and add nos.lol, nostr.mom and maybe relay.damus.io
Remove purple pages and filter.nostr.wine from the Search relays. Click the Default button to add the other two relays with search available. This improves @ tagging
Looks good, just remove cellar from Public Inbox
I'm confused. Why would I want my private DMs visible to others? Isn't the whole point to have relays that allow anyone to write, but require user authentication to read?
Only if you want DM notifications. Your DMs are now so private that even our Push Notification server cannot see them. So, if you want them, you need an opening, but everyone else will also see your events.
Thanks Vitor. Updated!
Inbox, Outbox and Search are wrong. Make sure there are no spaces in these addresses (yours have lots of spaces)
On Inbox and Outbox, add:
- nos.lol
- nostr.mom
- relay.damus.io
For private inbox/DM, add:
- nos.lol
- auth.nostr1.com
On Search, hit the default button.
I disabled Amethyst's notifications because I'm using Pokey which is hooked to my private inbox relays. I haven't had any DMs since I setup Pokey, but I'm assuming that it will be able to deliver DM notifications. Could you send me a DM to test that?
I don't know if Pokey is already AUTHing with your Amber key. That will be required to see your DMs.
You don't have anything setup. If you are on Amethyst...
On Inbox and Outbox, add:
- nos.lol
- nostr.mom
- relay.damus.io
For private inbox/DM, add:
- nos.lol
- auth.nostr1.com
On Search, hit the default button.
I didn't get a Pokey notification for your DM, so I'll add nos.lol as you suggested. Hopefully that will trigger a notification on DM.
General Section only. Other people can't use your filter subscription, so there is no need to put in any of the inbox/Outbox relays.
No, in theory, you only need to know where your posts are going once.
Well damn, that makes so much sense. Thank you!
Maybe a future version of Pokey will be able to auth via Amber to allow reading the DM relays.
Ok, if you go to Amethyst, you will see 7-8 relays in inbox and Outbox. That's too much.
Select 3 from Outbox trust to keep your posts. This could include paid relays. nostr.wine (if you are paying) is great here.
Select 3 from Inbox that are open to anyone to post. nos.lol and nostr.mom are great here.
For Private Inbox/DM relays add:
- nos.lol
- auth.nostr1.com
- relay.0xchat.com
Hit the Default button for Search to have better @tagging.
Too many inbox/Outbox relays.
Just pick the 3 most important relays for you in each.

Opa! 👋🏻
It looks all good. I would add more relays to you general section to make sure you are not missing posts from your follows.
Just add a few (press the add button) from the recommended section below General.
Are you paying for nostr.wine? If so, that goes in the Outbox. Remove from Inbox.
I would keep 3 other relays in Inbox and Outbox and delete the rest. Just pick the most important to you.
Click the Default button on Search to add search relays and make @ tagging work better.

Pick 3 of the 127.
We are def not at that stage yet...
Way too many errors. Way too many relays. Way too many typos. Too many clients adding everything into NIP-65...
Way too many people not knowing where their posts are.
Mostly good. But non of your SEARCH relays provide any search function. Just hit the default button on the top of the section to reset from the recommended ones.
🤙
This was a good exercise...
@miljan are you folks just saving all relays people write on Primal to the NIP-65 relays? The NIP-65 list is supposed to be for the public only and 3 max. The relays the app needs to use to function for this user should go somewhere else.

If ya got time still.
I probably have more than I need, but picking them for each purpose I don't get yet
Are you paying for nostr.wine? If so that goes in the Outbox only and not the Inbox.
Press the default button to get the Search Relays back.
Your Private Inbox relay is written wrong. Delete and add: relay.0xchat.com
Thanks!
Looks good. I would delete 1-3 from both inbox and Outbox lists. You can move them to the General relay list if they are not there already. Just keep the ones you truly trust to keep your posts safe and available.
Very good. I would add nos.lol to your DM relays if you want to receive notifications. Just be mindful that adding nos.lol also exposes your DM event to everyone else.
You are not using Amethyst yet right? If so, that's ok.
🫂💜🤙
Looks good. I would add the first 2 Recommended relays in the end of the screen (utxo, nos.lol) to your General list (just press the add button).
Very good. I would try to reduce the list of Inbox and Outbox to 3 max. So, just pick the most trusted ones from your list.
You can add the others back to the General List if they are not already there.
That would be great
Please!
Will do and thank you for your time ☺️
How about my list?
Sorry, I'm on Amethyst.
Recommendations
On Inbox and Outbox, add:
- nos.lol
- nostr.mom
- relay.damus.io
For private inbox/DM, add:
- nos.lol
- relay.0xchat.com
- auth.nostr1.com
On Search, hit the default button.
Heeelllpppp
Would love some insight.
Thanks
A video/document would be significantly more valuable of your time that the community could all reference. But appreciative of your offer to the community none the less! 👍
Done, thank you so much!
Removed the relays as advised. But I noticed I lost 10 followers. Before the removal I had 224. Is that normal?
Me 😁😁
Surprise me
Check mine!
Yes please
Idiot believe we r on snort relay I will check and do as said
my list sucks I already know
Please
please
Why 3? What are you aiming/optimizing for?
Okay.
Thank you.
😃
Yes
Where can I read up on what's an "inbox" or "outbox" relay?
ok but why ? what's the problem with having more or less or some particular relays?
Please do
Smaller data usage. The more you have, the more your followers suffer to find your posts.
GM Nostr 👋
Read through Vitor's suggestions, you'll learn a lot.
An optimized relay list is a game changer.

Bless you Vitor! Mine probably need trimmitng... you know I'm on Amethyst, and I do pay for wine
Interested for me and @Bitvocation Bot
Sim! Estou no primal!
yes
Yeah I use amethyst
feels like a tarot reading
please do
Yes please.
Nostr / Amethyst is just one of the four¹ social media that I follow and this whole relay thing is just way too confusing.
Especially since all the changes recently.
¹ Bluesky, Farcaster, Mastodon and Nostr
👀
Umm sure…
What is the benefit of such review?
Oooh, Me me me me me!
The only one I'm paying for on my relay list is Wine.
Still feels like 1 person maximum ever sees my posts. 😢
Sure. thx 💜
Eu quero, quero não, necessito 🤣
Relay list:
the algo
everything else
Okay, if inbox relays should be free, how do I keep a copy of my DMs if the relays I run I charge a fee to use so I don't get spammed? This rule means if I add my relays to my DMs, then I don't get notifications?
do me next.
Public and Private Inboxes are different but both should offer a way for anyone else that is sending you a DM or a reply to post in there. So, if the relay you are using requires payment to post, you will never see any DMs or replies.
PUBLIC INBOX: You will receive a copy from clients that operate in the Outbox model. Primal, Damus and, to some extent, Amethyst do not send it yet. But they will soon. Coracle, for instance, will sends it there.
PRIVATE INBOX: Amethyst, 0xchat and Coracle do send to your Private Inbox relays.
inbox.nostr.wine allows you to pay to receive DMs from everyone else. So, having to pay here is not an issue because you are paying for the others.
Each relay is different.
? I did yours yesterday
👋
Me too exactly
Bookmarked and zapped. I'll be coming back to read this multiple times 🥴🤔🙂
yes
How can I check which relay has all my posts?
🙏
Uff.. I think I am late for this 🥲😅
