   @feditips I'm slightly confused as to how the FediBuzz relay(s) work. I subscribed our server to the "philly" tag, and then made a post using the philly tag. My own post was then boosted into my timeline by FediBuzz.

   I don't think normal relays work this way, do they? Why is FediBuzz boosting stuff? Seems a little noisy.
