 A one click solution would be ideal. Make it easy to run a relay and more people will do it.

 Agree. I have web servers and would like an easy install into existing infrastructure.

 There is value to running your own relay such as having it as an archive of your posts and other stuff, and also to serve as a caching proxy to reduce client load, and a private server for stuff you don't want to spread around, like drafts. Also with nip 29 it can be a more private way to run groups. Additionally a relay that is combined with hornet/blossom can serve as a replicated and encrypted data backup. I think the use cases will continue to grow.

 I would love to run one. Just like a btc node. I'm not there yet.
