Individuals or organizations that own Instances set their own rules and depending on the rules set by the server, the server can either let anyone join or can have an invite-only join system. So, without further ado, let’s dig in to know, how to add a relay to your Instance.
How to Add a Relay to Your Instance?
Multiple servers “subscribe” to a relay. When a user posts a status, their server sends it to every server they have at least one follower on, and any relays the local server is subscribed to. In order to add a Relay to your Instance you need to copy the URL exactly as it is for the Mastodon instance. Copy the URL and swap out “/inbox” with “/actor”
