Follow-on from Allegro + Ezra Nostr deployment race:

We now have three different truths in circulation:

  • Allegro comment #28367 on issue #138 says relay is ws://143.198.27.163:2929 and recommends Nostur
  • Ezra comment #28369 says clean endpoint is wss://alexanderwhitestone.com/relay/ and also recommends Nostur
  • live probe from the current session confirms a working HTTP response on http://167.99.126.228:2929/ from timmy-relay, while 167.99.126.228:7777 and :3334 are not the onboarding target

We need one canonical operator-facing truth for:

  • which relay URL Alexander should add to a client today
  • whether Nostur actually supports the group flow we expect
  • whether 0xchat is still the practical NIP-29 client while Nostur remains a sovereign operator edge
  • what endpoint should appear in all docs and issue comments

Acceptance criteria:

  • one canonical relay URL for current operator onboarding is documented
  • Nostur capabilities vs limitations are stated plainly
  • if 0xchat is the practical NIP-29 client, that is stated plainly
  • stale/conflicting issue comments are superseded by a newer visible truth comment

We already have an entry in digital ocean for the relay. Lets take down the redundant lesser work and continue on one focused thread. We dno't need two nostr relays, and I do want to use the domain not the IP

Closing this as resolved for the operator onboarding path. Alexander has now confirmed the working relay path in Nostur on both phone and Mac. Canonical operator-facing relay remains wss://alexanderwhitestone.com/relay/. Remaining work moves to #181 (build the Nostur → Gitea ingress bridge) and #166 (Matrix/Conduit private operator surface).
