Curious--how do we prevent the centralization of relays? As more users come onboard, it seems like some relays will end up sucking up a huge majority of users and will be able to censor content that way. Will the average normie really care to connect to the 'free' relays, especially if they're not as performant? They'll all flock to where most of the discourse is happening.
