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.

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.

👍

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

Fair enough.

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).
