What nodes should Mysu use by default? - eviltoast

@rottenwheel@lemmy.zip brought up the issue of using samourai wallet nodes in Mysu.

I agree that samourai wallet nodes should be removed, but I’m wondering which other nodes we should (and more importantly should not) use by default?
Should I just copy random nodes with good uptime history from https://monero.fail/, or is there some consensus in the community about some nodes being a little bit more trustworthy, e.g. due to being run by trusted community members?
Anyway, here is the list of the current default nodes: https://codeberg.org/anoncontributorxmr/mysu/src/branch/master/app/src/main/java/net/mynero/wallet/data/DefaultNodes.kt, your feedback is welcome.

    I’m thinking about adding

    monero.stackwallet.com:18081
    rucknium.me:18081
    rucknium757bokwv3ss35ftgc3gzb7hgbvvglbg3hisp7tsj2fkd2nyd.onion:18081
    plowsofe6cleftfmk2raiw5h2x66atrik3nja4bfd3zrfa2hdlgworad.onion:18089 (or plowsoffjexmxalw73tkjmf422gq6575fc7vicuu4javzn2ynnte6tyd.onion:18089)

    Because them seem to be ran by known community members (although I will need to confirm that the ones that seem to be from rucknium and plowsof are actually run by them).

    Add cake wallet nodes, sethforprivacy, monerujo clearnet (as it already appears to have monerujo i2p/onion). Using nodes directly from Monero fail probably is not a great idea because we already know that blockchain surveillance companies are running nodes that they leave RPC open for hapless wallets to connect to as demonstrated by the recently leaked video.

      👍

      monerujo clearnet (as it already appears to have monerujo i2p/onion)

      nodex.monerujo.io:18081 is already in the default node list :)

      Fair enough.
