creating a relay in <60 seconds! π₯ you can try it if you want, it's in demo mode on nostr1.com (only 21 sats)
you wouldn't believe how long I've been working on this.. lmao, it's rediculous.

Trying it! Finally a way to make a feet only global feed.
yessir! Haha
Is each relay a docker container or a dedicated VMs?
Whoa, how can we self-host this?
What am I doing wrong, my global is empty. Is nobody talking about feet, or did I mis-configure? 
Trying...
Pretty cool πππ»
The plan is to opensource the entire codebase behind it so that you could run this self hosted for any domains. Still lots of work to do to make that happen though (like docs and etc). Stay tuned.
From mobile... worked
So you canβt connect to the relay yet?
Ohh hold up, this will only write if the note has feet in it?
Nvm took a while but connected π
Working nicely ππ»
They run in a systemd-nspawn container, docker is not as cool for 'production' purposes π
Yes that setting is right, but its just a standalone relay. You or others have to add it to your relay list and publish there for it to get messages.
Once I expanded AllowList, I am unable to collapse it now. Fyi
Thats ok, ya the UI needs some β₯οΈ, functionality is there tho.
Yes 100. Very cool πͺ
How are you supposed to use the mod portion ?
If you add someone as a mod, they can (eventually) edit the same settings. Right now it's read only..
Ok. Whatβs the upload limit on the relay?
Not much limits .. eventually we can have settings for those.

I'm pretty proud that I've avoided using any #cloud proprietary lockin on this. I want it to be portable onto any machine, bare metal or VMs. To be more precise, there is an agent that runs on any # of machines, which talks to the API and handles provisioning of new relays using systemd-nspawn.
I see a blank page with Relay Creator text on top-left. Sign-in on top-right. What am I doing wrong.
Ya gotta sign in (only works with nip07 sign-in right now).
And then you can market your relay hosting services on civkit and compete with others, maybe a button that let's you automatically add the relay to your client too!
Oh nice, hadn't heard about civkit, thanks I am reading the paper on it.. ππ―
@PABLOF7z I love what you're doing with relay sets. I think everyone should be able to run and manage a relay with just a few clicks. This will open the gates for π« nostring in the future. Happy to see that relays are on your radar! π―π€
View quoted note β
just tried out. I am waitting someone to build something like this to play with the relay-selector from flycat.club. I think I talked about this idea with nostr.band author before. just glad somebody has the similar thoughts and make it happend! one question, there is moderator on the relay setting, but there is no dashboard to really modrate anything comes to the relay, is this feature not roll out yet? and it seems to me when I set default message setting to deny, it will just abort any message sent to it? 
oh cool, glad you tried it. The moderator setting just allows that other person to nostr login, and they can manage the relay that you've created (they get the same config screen you see here). Right now it's read-only cause I have to fix the perms. The only moderation options are what you see there, you can block keywords or pubkeys, or you can run in 'deny' mode and allow only certain keywords or pubkeys. I want to improve on this and add more options, but this was the basics.
I want to integrate this with nostr lists, so that you can use them to bulk-add to the different filters, and I'd also like to have delete available as well, so that anyone in the owner or moderator crew can submit a report via their nostr client and an agent will be listening and perform the moderation action on the relay by deleting the messages retroactive.
awesome, deleting is a must. I think pre-approve and deleting if some message are reporting inapproiate is a nature pattern in moderating.
It's crazy how easy it is to build your own relay.
