Run a relay on your phone!
.'s avatar .
Here is how I got #citrine to work as both a local relay and as an exposed onion service as outbox relay on my phone. Thanks to @Ryan for the idea! Download Citrine and start as local relay Open Orbot Tap more Tap onion hosted services Tap user services Tap + Add any name to service Add 4869 to both ports Hit save Exit from orbot Restart orbot by closing out or force close Restart orbot and connect orbot vpn again Tap hosted services and copy new onion url Open #Amethyst and go to relays Add ws://yournewonionaddress. onion:4869 to outbox relay Remove any other outbox relay Hit save @npub1w4us...0jr5 @Vitor Pamplona @Derek Ross #nostr

A lot of people who have disposable budget get lured in and never leave aws. For those of us like myself on no grant and no subsidies we have to as scrappy as possible and conserve whatever we have, so no aws. ✌️🥕🧡
Probly gifted credits initially and then stuck is my guess or large grants ( not just nostr but like mainstream tech startups )
IPv4 from 1981 through AWS' start in 2002 (and Cloudflare founding in 2009) proves otherwise.

i think there are some privacy issues with that, and p2p nostr isn't that useful imo. what I find is more useful is resilient backups between your devices. we're very close for your devices to negentropy-sync with each other via multicast on your local network
The netzero carbon neutral renewable extremists will only settle for 100% AWS 100% nostr outage! 🌚

Sync between devices is definetly cool. I.honestly think p2p nostr is the way to go. Maybe there would be some performance issues but we could solve that with negentropy sync between different devices over Tor (maybe based on who you follow).
