This is actually kind of wild. Predatory as all hell but they have all the leverage with these people.

Yet another way westerners are privileged in the fact that we can get systems in place to do self hosting while most of these "new users" wouldn't be able to do the same.

How could nostr realistically work without reliance on western relays or centralized relays in their respective regions?
