One of the main challenges for new servers on here is discovering content to interact with.
Relays speed up the discovery process, and allow even a single user server to automatically see a large part of the Fediverse.
There's a new relay service by @astro@c3d2.social called FediBuzz Relay:
It allows servers to subscribe to custom relays based on tags or instances.
If you use this, can you let us know your experiences in the replies?

@feditips can't understand what are you talking about. Could you simplify that please?

Sorry, I should have said at the start, this post is meant for server admins rather than general users.
Relays are a way of allowing small new servers to quickly discover lots of content from other servers. WIthout relays, the process of a server "noticing" posts can take a lot longer.

@feditips got your point :-)

p.s. I've added a section to the fedi.tips website to explain more about relay servers and why they can be useful to new servers:

If you're wondering what the heck the previous post is about, this might help explain.
