About 85% of nostr's relay network is now offline. We are down to about only 10 relays that are still working well. This number could go either way in the next year, up to 20, or down to 5. There are competing forces of centralization, decenralization and trickle down economics at play. I hope more people run relays and the network gets more support.

You mean 10 biggest? I suppose there are private relays that are active?

Did you leave off a couple of zeros? I'm connected to more relays than you seem to think exist.

Is it possible to run a relay on a NAS?

As a data consultant, numbers are as good as the source. With that said, where do we get the right source and fact check it?!
