Nos has a news relay that anyone can subscribe to. We recently added more news outlets to it. You can add the relay to your list: news.nos.social
If anyone has suggestions of other outlets to add let me know if the replies below.
We can spin up a bitcoin news relay pretty easily as well, so if you have ideas for that one include them below.
The apps Iβm aware of that make it easy to view relay content are Nos and Damus. You can the Nos version below.

Interesting π€π
Somewhat unrelated, but I think Reddit-like communities have a better chance to succeed than topic-specific relays.
I think relays are slightly harder to understand as a concept and they work better as something which is "transparent" to the user: a mere technical detail most of the time, which the user doesn't have to keep track of. Users shouldn't be expected to manually select relays every time they post.
A solution can be that of having a community and hosting it on a relay specific for that community. Alternatively, a relay could fetch and store events with a given hashtag.
if you follow the outbox model there is no need to subscribe a particular relay, and if you can't reach that note if it gets spread it will be in your feed
No. I donβt think Iβm familiar with that. Can you share the NIP05 or npub?
Are you going to support e-commerce ?
Nip-15
Nip-99
They are getting merged
The issue is with posting to the news-specific relay to begin with.
If the purpose is that of having RSS bots it might make sense.
I thought the idea was having users specifically electing to push to the news relay when they post news, which I think is unlikely to become a common practice unless it's automated in some smart way.
I've never used relays for specific content. I follow people and that's my usual feed. So I want to see news from this relay, I add it and then? Go to global? I'm using amethyst BTW.
Will you be supporting nip-15 or nip-99 for ecommerce?
Would yall consider adding @utxo the webmaster π§βπ» newsbots:

Sure the ones that are active.
Iβm not familiar with the UI in amethyst but you would want to switch the feed to view only news.nos.social to see the news feed. @Vitor Pamplona do you support single relay views?
