From 4f2a7ef3fe46656d708f12d0c95beb487f378cc8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: sepehr-safari Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2026 17:39:00 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] A place is a relay, not a set of people The site described a place as "their relays, their people". The second half is not true. Plaza parses the `pubkeys` off Hallway's `hardcodedFeeds` and drops them, and the place feed subscribes for kind 1 with no authors filter, so a place hands you one relay and whatever that relay serves. The accurate line is the better one anyway: relay-side curation is the whole argument, and taking a publisher's relay at its word is exactly that. --- content/plaza.mdx | 4 ++-- content/roadmap.mdx | 2 +- 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/content/plaza.mdx b/content/plaza.mdx index 2cabe69..f1fb1cc 100644 --- a/content/plaza.mdx +++ b/content/plaza.mdx @@ -22,7 +22,7 @@ and reconciles with relays behind you.
