I’m not sure
hodlbod (npub1jlr…ynqn), because the UX of primal and damus are a lot better becuase they do run relays. We’ve been experimenting with proxy and caching relays with
nos.social (npub1pu3…tfch) and found that it does help a lot. It is much easier to add capacity to a server, scaliing horizontally, than it is to optimize the on device performance in an app on a low end mobile phone. What’s more, Nostr tends to use tons of bandwidth requesting the same content repeatedly.
I think a potential solution would be clients connecting to and using proxy relays, but then we’d need people running those. At the moment most proxies tend to be closed.
