What's a Web-of-Trust relay?
It's a type of relay that anyone can read from, but only certain people can write to. If the owner follows you or one of the people that the owner follows, follows you, then you're considered inside their Web-of-Trust. You can then write to this relay!
Example:
I follow jack (npub1sg6…f63m) but I do not follow @billybob. jack (npub1sg6…f63m) however does follow @billybob. Therefore, @billybob is allowed to write to my WoT relay.
Even if you're not inside a WoT, you can still use these relays for reading Nostr content. This relay software also fetches and archives content from people inside the WoT automatically. This means users inside the WoT don't even need to choose these relays and write to them for their content to be available on these relays. And then readers can enjoy this content with little to no spam. Cool.
