A relay is just a server that broadcasts your notes. It’s what makes nostr decentralized actually. If your notes are transmitted by more than one relay, if ever a relay were to fail, your notes would still be broadcasted by the other relays. That’s kind of the whole point of nostr. It doesn’t have a centralized point of failure.
