Oh sure, that's fine. I thought you were talking about how people select which relay will be their inbox.

Because relay rules can be complex, and this is a growing field, I think the most a nostr client should do is

1) Indicate that the post failed,
2) Give the user a link to the relay support page, including information about the post that failed.

Then the user and the relay can "sort it out" using any complex method they want. And

3) Give the user a method to retry the post after they have sorted it out.

My point being that gossip cannot keep up with and implement in-UI schemes for relay payment, captchas, and every other fresh new idea someone comes up with.

NIP-11 doesn't have a general "support" URL, it only has a "payments_url". So maybe we should change that.
