 I had to learn more about relays after the reply guy thing and I have no idea what’s going on with them. 

I have some good ones now so I’m happy but even finding quality relays is a struggle and have several paid ones get crazy expensive. I only have one and it’s 10k sats a month. 
 10k sats per month? wow! 
 Yeah it’s nostr.wine 
 Yeah, I just added time to my filter relay. It's expensive, but it eliminates the need to have a zillion general relays configured. That greatly reduces data use and power consumption, as well as simplifying the setup.  
 which relay(s) are you using if I may ask. 
 General relays? Or public outbox/Inbox relays?  
 nvm just saw your comment above. 
 It provides the content of the top 10 or 15 relays, and eliminates the need for a dozen different relays. Instead you have just one, plus whatever specialty relays you want content from. Plus they have a distributed network with access points all over the world so you get peak speeds no matter where you are. Checkout https://docs.nostr.wine/filter/readme 
 I’ll have to dig into it more to see what I’m paying for. I saw it suggest so tried it out and didn’t dig much deeper. 

Also I don’t care enough 🤣
