Or, run your own node on your own hardware using free and open source software.
Crucial Steps for an Uncensored Nostr Relay:
- buy an inexpensive used PC
- install nostr:nprofile1qqs9df4h2deu3aae83...
The monthly subscription to run a relay on someone else's hardware would cost less than the monthly internet bill to run my own.
Nostr already costs me like $40 a month, running primal and yakihonne on my phone, that's 95%+ of my data each month.
And whenever it rains, because the copper internet cables are not insulated they short out and everything gets rerouted through the phone networks, my "low priority" internet connection cuts out so that banks and stuff can continue having high speed internet.
Internet is too expensive and unreliable here to run relays on your own hardware
