My question is this: why would anyone go to the trouble of running a personal relay? Assuming that the altruistic motivation to decentralize nostr doesn’t count, bc it isn’t sustainable.
Here’s my best answer: build a personal relay that calculates your Grapevine WoT Lists and updates them in real time. I can see this becoming a MUST HAVE.
