Oh, that's big; I missed that. So Nyx gives you real-time information on your individual relay, and less about the network overall?
Correct. Atlas provides a website where you can look up general information on any relay, whereas Nyx provides detailed real-time information about your relay.
The difference is really important: relays can't report detailed stats publicly, because it's not safe for clients. (It makes some attacks easier.)
Tools like nyx allow relay operators to get detailed stats for their relays, while protecting tor users.
