 Usually I let Njump create the nevent from my hex ID, but that doesn’t seem to be working well 
 If the note was sent to a relay that njump does not know about, it cannot find it and therefore converts it to a nevent. The note was sent to relay.damus.io? 
 I found it on relay.nostr.band and that’s the relay hint I added to get it to work 
 I confirm that relay.notr.band is not used to look up raw hex ids. 
 Do you know why? That relay has everything. 😂 
 Actually, I don't know. Probably to incentivize the use of hints. I need to check better. 
 I use Njump to create the nevents with hints for me 😂 
 Why? Which is the use case? 
 My app Quotestr doesn’t support using hex IDs. I use zap receipt hex IDs on Njump to look at zap receipt events to see if they seem legit. Then I copy the event with route hints that Njump creates and use it on Quotestr. 
 I see.
Maybe you can create a simple command line tool to quey a large set of relays and create the nevent. 
 i can create the nevent with route hint in my script. i've just been lazy. 😂
