@jeff @kin For me relays just filled up my disk/DB with things I wasn't too interested in. Plus many of them no longer work. I've been trying to come up with ways to handle discoverability, my latest one is https://fediverse-explorer.stefanbohacek.dev, if you're interested.
Ideally I'd find a way to integrate this with Mastodon more directly, maybe some sort of a tag-based relay, as someone on here suggested.

I got my personal instance up, and I'm curious–if you run one, did you add any relays to it? If so, which ones and what hoops did you jump through? Thanks!
/cc @kin
@jeff I have 3 instances I am managing, but all single user. Relays is on my todo / learn list, but haven't had time. Please sharing learnings as you do, and I'll do the same.

Wrote a quick post that analyses which apps I've been using most often to post on Mastodon (some code in #Python for the #MastodonAPI) https://dev.to/andypiper/analysing-which-mastodon-apps-ive-used-30pb
I have had many amazing tacos and rarely get surprised by new ones, but Tacos Oscar blew my mind and is up there with the best I’ve ever had. http://www.tacososcar.com/

Pioneering geologist & oceanographer Marie Tharp changed our understanding of the ocean.
When Tharp sought a geology job at Columbia in 1948, women couldn’t go on research ships. So, she was hired to assist male grad students.
Back then, many scientists still assumed the bottom of the ocean was featureless. Tharp figured out how to use data to create sketches of the ocean floor. Her hand-drawn maps helped develop plate tectonic theory. https://theconversation.com/marie-tharp-pioneered-mapping-the-bottom-of-the-ocean-6-decades-ago-scientists-are-still-learning-about-earths-last-frontier-142451 #science #history #HistoryRemix

I have had this on replay on a side monitor all morning. These are the drones we just sold a bunch of to the Ukraine. I am left thinking about my work on Drone Recovery and the imbalance in our priorities in this country. ;-( http://dronerecovery.org/journal/a-drone-recovery-post-to-remember-the-kid/
