A nostr relay bouncer. A nostr relay bouncer.
## What is this? ## What is this?
**Bostr** is a multi nostr relay proxy that were serving in a server that act like an normal nostr relay. **Bostr** is a multi nostr relay **proxy** that were serving as a nostr relay.
## Why? ## Why?
Nostr relays is bunch of dummy servers and usually connects to more than 5-10 relays to work properly. Nostr relays is a bunch of dummy servers that store user events. Normally nostr clients usually connects to more than 5-10 relays to receive and transmit events.
Due to it is nature to connect to more than two or three relays, This caused a issue such as mobile data bandwidth drained drastically, and similiar Due to it's nature that connects to more than just a single relay, **Client bandwidth usage is high.** And because of this, Nostr bandwidth usage is not really recommended for some users, notably **mobile data users.**
This project serve the purpose as a bouncer to reduce client bandwidth usage. This project solve the problem by **reducing** the number of connected relays, at the same time **proxying** multiple relays in a single socket to nostr client.
