Relay migration appears to be a success. No downtime and no issues so far!
The whitelisting mechanism for publishing was removed.
We now use Vertex (npub1kpt…nhmz) to check the pubkey's reputation instead, meaning that anyone with minimal reputable following can now publish on Zapstore without pre-approval! We do not appreciate spam or questionable content, which will promptly be added to the blacklist.
This new relay written in Go is faster, with more accurate search results. Thank you pip (npub176p…vgup) for the rely library and Keyhan Alizadeh (npub1h49…9kay) for implementing!
