 That’s a lot of paid relays!

Why 4, may I ask?

I use one created from relay.tools 
 relay.nostrplebs.com is my NIP-05 relay. The first one I got.
nostrelay.yeghro.site because all my friends use it. both of them.
relay.snort.social because my other friends use that client
studio314.nostr1.com because it's run by a friend and I got it for free

Then I have: 
relay.damus.io because it's again used by many friends.
hist.nostr.land because nuking your profile sucks
nostr.band cause they do a good job in spam control
nostr.mutinywallet.com I only write to that one but don't read.
nos.lol because it's popular but again I only write to it.
noswhere.com can't remember why I've added that one. 
 thoughts on noStrudel? 
 I'm sending this from noStrudel. Imo it's the go-to desktop client for power users who want access to ALL of nostr aka the "other stuff". I also think it's the best client for content creators. Or can be. On mobile I use Amethyst. 
 NoStrudel is amazing

 Shit, I'm a sucker for a good UI, I'm still waiting for Primal to work properly 😂 

But at least my eyes are not offended while I'm waiting 😂 😂 😂  
 ya, can't afford to be offended & still navigating but positive progress!
