Outbox works differently. I have outbox relays set in my profile. A client that supports outbox will connect to them to grab my notes even if it is not in the users subscribed relay list. https://mikedilger.com/gossip-model/

You sure? If you're following someone I think your client fetches their relays and gets their notes automatically. That's why there's no longer any need to use 20+ relays.

On the outbox model, your client is connecting to the relays of each of your follows and sending all filters to them. That could mean up to 200 relays that are connected to your phone and looking to what you are doing.

Thanks for the info. New rabbit hoke to go down.
