 @hes ⚡️ @Sherry @Moss do you know of any Chinese relays? 
 @prc30 
 Thanks for the heads up  @reltbracco  Have already replied.  Unfortunately there aren't any relays that I'm aware of.  
 I am asking the same question for my wife 😂 

Let me know if you find any! 
 Last year there was a relay.nostrch.land that ran Chinese, but it has stopped working now. I haven't found any new Chinese relays yet. 
 no😂haha 
 bostr.online 
 it's private now😇 
 sorry,I forgot it.😉 
 @yr @0xDEADC0DE

 Who are the people behind FreeFrom? 
 Me and some devs in Japan

 you can use freefrom app,  and use  content language filter on plaza, add 中文 for it, then you can see many chinese language users there.

chinese users normally can not connect to popular relays such as relay.damus.io/relay.nostr.band and so on, they all banned by GFW. 
 Deploying relays in mainland China is not a good idea because Chinese users will not trust relays running in mainland China and are worried that they are phishing relays deployed by the government. Therefore, generally Chinese users will use VPNs to connect to popular relays or themselves Deploy relays outside mainland China. There are currently relatively few relays deployed. Some Chinese users in Taiwan and Japan have deployed relay servers, and some users have deployed proxy forwarding type relays through the bostr project (for example:  https://bostr.online/  ) to solve the problem of GFW blocking popular relays.
