Not yet, currently I hand coded some relays into the code.

Yes, by default it only connects to wss://blowater.nostr1.com

Blowater is never designed to be a social media client and never will. It's a Discord style client for communities & organizations. Therefore, relays play very different roles comparing to mainstream nostr clients.

 Yes it's exactly what I (and we) need!
the only thing is if People we sent message are not connected the blowater relay, they won't be able to see the message but I suppose you also hard coded damus, nos, etc. relays.

This is the current behavior of Blowater but it's never my eventual goal.

Delivery is a hard problem so that I intentionally sacrificed cross-relay interop for a smoother UX as a workaround.

I am working on better cross-relay interop. It just takes time.

There are several design problems I need to solve before addressing the cross-relay problem.
