Over the next few years as relays gain features we need a list of good relays. This post aims to be a posted list of relays which are known to not shadow ban, censor conservative thought, and or participate in shitty controlling behavior. Each one needs to be verified by known users. Post will be permasticked and updated with suggestions from comments below.

how do i join one of these relays? dont tell me i need separate acc for that
No. That is what makes nostr special. Keep your private key secret and you’ll never need to make a new account again. It depends on the client. In Amethyst click your picture in top left, then relays, then add these relays there. Also, you’ll want to disable filters to get more un censored content.
As you are a free speech absolutist.
Click your picture go to security Filters and disable “Filter spam from strangers”
Getting the following error from the Gossip OSX client:

That’s a error with your client. It returns an expected result,
