 What’s a “micro relay”? Isn’t that basically a trusted server? 
 Lol no. I mean the relay implementation can be skinny and stuffed in local client.

But nm. I have argued this before enough to have been told by the creator of this protocol that centralization is a feature and relays are private property.

So. It doesn't matter what I say. This is how it will be. We are just rebuilding the old world with new faces and phrases.

Be well 
 I don't think it's necessarily a question of size. It's just that you can only trust your own relays.

The Android relay I run on my localhost is more trustworthy than one run by someone else, on their machine, regardless of who they are, because I can see the entirety of it and verify everything. 
 I just setup Citrine on my phone and it's running really good. Do you know if there are other relay apps for Android, or is Citrine pretty much it for now?  
 I think that's the only one, so far. 
 That's OK. Setting it up and getting it running was a snap. I wish it had more configuration options, but it's pretty great for a personal relay that runs on your phone.
