Configure default relay to connect to? #2413

It doesn't seem obvious how is daedalus connecting to cardano network - where does it get topology of relays from? I assume it has some IOHK relay servers hardcoded right now?

Would it be possible to let users to pick alternative relays or specify custom topology? Having everything relying on IOHK infrastructure is not good for decentralization.

Relays Daedalus uses are defined in IOHK-nix: https://github.com/input-output-hk/iohk-nix/blob/master/cardano-lib/default.nix#L40

@disassembler @darko-mijic any comment from your side?

You can put in any set of relays you want in daedalus You just edit the topology file and restart the node

C:\Program Files\Daedalus Mainnet\topology.yaml
