after reading some stuff today i decided that finally i'm going to start using #tor with my #nostr... set up foxyproxy to use tor on a whitelist and put my main nostr clients on it i dream of one day finally completing the task of writing a lightning powered multi-hop anonymising proxy protocol as i was working on in 2022 but this will do for now
hm it just occurs to me that even though it's anonymising the connection to the server, which is just serving an app, it's not doing anything to my relays lol
just added all my relays to the list, i don't see any change in how things seem to be working maybe this is a result of the fantastic optic fibre network i'm connected to
well i'm a relay dev and generally speaking fairly familiar with protocols and especially anonymising and proxy systems... just someone talking about how they don't want to do biz over nostr so they don't leak connections to vendors... made me think...
yeah, that shit grinds my gears hard
i think what you want is for it to use the relay for some specific set of addresses or to not use it for some specific set of addresses, idk if orbot can make that easy it's a bit more achievable on linux this is also partly why i'm kinda like... hmmm i think i like it that if i lost my phone and it was still unlocked and someone digs around in it they can't do shit... even the bank app won't be accessible to them without my fingerprint or teh passcode, and it can't receive my emails or nothin would be a hassle tho anyway, my suggestion is just don't do normie shit on the phone if you wanna do freedom shit on the phone, get a normie phone for normie shit and probably... leave it at home so you don't think of doing normie shit and getting $5 wrench attacked
