please use a VPN when using nostr. actually, you should really be using a VPN all the time, no reason not to (even banks and stuff now have been more lenient with them) if you're an apple user, apple literally provides a free one (iCloud Private Relay) that is actually quite good. it's not technically a VPN but it does mask the IP -> site visit mapping

Why exactly to use a VPN on Nostr? Are our IPs visible on the relays?

I’ve been using the iCloud private relay since it was implemented. It works flawlessly

Is iCPR in effect within apps or just safari?

I have Proton and it works well. Although, I normally use nostr on my phone—so I use the iCloud relay

#[0] DeepL訳 -- nostrを使うときはVPNを使ってください。実際、VPNを常に使うべきです。もしあなたがアップルユーザーなら、アップルは文字通り無料のもの(iCloud Private Relay)を提供しており、これは実際に非常に優れています。これは技術的にはVPNではありませんが、IP -> サイト訪問マッピングをマスクします

vpn is only really useful to workaround a geo-block doesn't protect your ip from leaking when initially connecting to sites, database gets uploaded to a centralised server from the gov with most vpn providers + the free vpns are free for a reason i hear tor is the way (app Orbot/tor supported browser e.g. brave tor browser)

Void.cat images break when using a VPN. Does it work for you since you’re using it for your pfp?

The whole site gets blocked when I have mine on 🫤. I’ve heard this from multiple people too. What provider are you using and do you have dedicated IP?
