Oddbean new post about login | logout Serious question: In case if Brazil would block as well all nostr-client-apps & some IP‘s. Which will become the easiest normie-way to connect to nostr?
They can't ban all web clients and all relays. They can use local clients on their devices or download clients from anyone on the Internet. Relays can pop-up and be spun up around the world. And they can also use TOR.
Any recommendations for step-by-step guide how to: -set up your own nostr relay? -install a client that isnt listed at the apple store -use nostr in combination with TOR? #asknostr
Do you want to run a relay that's accessible from the outside world? Apple doesn't let you install apps outside of their walled garden. Android is best here. I don't have a list of TOR only relays, but many major relays work over TOR.
Relay tools should implement a standard for all strfry relays, charge if needed can be separate package 📦
It's not about banning! It's about making it illegal and fining/jailing you! That's the game. They are not gonna ban anything. They are gonna jail a few and scare everyone else into submission.
You could use TOR, or a VPN (one with depois packet inspection resistance features in case VPN's get blocked too) or simply connect to relays that aren't blocked

I have a Nostr Tor relay, connects to all tthe major relays for you wih no spam Install Orbot on your phone, Tell Orbot to use the app In the nostr app, delete all the relays and add only this one ws://6xgsnrw6cs7eumqz7az7uyklzoarxljmtfkqkavykopvdbeualuqaxyd.onion
For the clients you can install from alternative app stores (if you use Android, not sure how that would work on IOS), install with APK or get the code to compile and install manually (more complex but still possible)
