Thank you for this service 🙂. I Just recently switched to and it all is still a bit over my head.
Since you know snac (and your own relay obviously), If I may ask:

I now follow your with my relay account and am now getting all the content, but I wonder about the reverse. I see your relay follows my relay now and I wonder: Since my relay doesn't boost anything and doesn't follows anything, will it "magically" still fill your relay service with posts from my instance, or should I enable my relay user to boost everything and let it follow all local accounts?

The documentation doesn't yet mention this step.

Hi, author here. If your instance has a relay user, all your public posts are boosted to all subscribed relays, improving the visibility.

I see, thank you for the confirmation 🙂.
Then the UI checkboxes are not relevant for the special user "relay" I thought so but wanted to be sure.
Thank to you again for this awesome feature. Now I feel snac is giving me everything I had before with someone else's mastodon, only that now, I'm in full selfhost control. 😀

Is it a simple Announce of a Note by a relay user?
