Changed my Amethyst setup to use a couple proxy relays and WOW what a difference!

Much faster and more stable, and profiles actually load so I know which of my follows posted the note.

My proxies: aggr.nostr.land and my own WoT relay.

Yes, I lose out on the outbox model for fetching notes from my follows' relays, but the tradeoff is worth it for actually having a functional app.
