Thread - Nostr Hypermedia

The point of outbox is that all of the other lists are optional. Set YOUR outbox and everyone you follow has their outbox relays dynamically served to you. If you want to do a blast broadcast, specify a proxy relay, or makesure your DMs go through a specific relay, THAT is when it gets complicated because you are a power user. Those toggles aren't for the average user. Literally selecting default relays works for 99% of people.

If that’s true, maybe the app should be clear about this, because if I were a new user, it would confuse the hell out of me, and even as someone who has used Nostr clients for 3 years, it’s way more than I want to or should need to think about. The UX could be instantly improved by hiding all of those other options in an “Advanced Relay Settings” page.

I mean, Amethyst is marketed as "a client with everything" it is for the power user. It literally describes each relay function in grey right below the title. I'm not sure this is "more than I want to or should need to think about." If you don't want to think about it, hit "default" and never worry about it. If you want to adjust things then do so.
