strfry on a Mac
Fast C++ Nostr relay (single binary, one-click Docker) · Social Media
strfry is the most widely deployed Nostr relay — a single C++ binary over LMDB, fast enough for the biggest public relays yet trivial to run privately. Full NIP-01 querying, negentropy set-reconciliation sync between relays, write policies and stream/router federation. One-click Docker here (WebSocket on :7777, data in a named volume), or build from source and front it with your Apache/Nginx TLS. Tip: your Nostr identity's NIP-05 verification is just a .well-known/nostr.json on any domain you already serve — host it on one of your vhosts. Buzz (Chat) is built on Nostr, and clients like Damus/Amethyst can use your relay directly.
