Running Amethyst Outbox in the middle of all of this spam is bizarre. Since it connects to whatever relay your follows use as public inbox if the public inbox relay has porn, it's the author's own fault. Each reply may or may not have porn is it all depends on the inbox relay of that reply.

Unfollowing the author is a great incentive to make authors choose good inbox relays for their followers. And probably pay for if they want to keep things really safe for their followers.

So, if I understood understand correctly, Amethyst will fetch from relays you haven't personally added to fetch notes by people you follow and replies to them using their public inbox/outbox?

Assuming it's true then, if I set my public inbox and public outbox relays to a few low spam relays, then add the high spam ones to to my general relays (with uploading content enabled), it'll keep from forcing people to pull from high spam relays while still uploading to said ones?

Trying to figure out the best of both worlds. Got a paid relay, and probably have enough activity/following to get by WOT. But would want to balance keeping things spam free while also avoiding having an account that'd be effectively unable to interact with somebody who just joined or didn't care/understand to deal with paid relays or WOT.

Thanks

Correct. Outbox is the upcoming version. So for now, each user has their list and amethyst does not connect to new ones.

But many other outbox clients do exist and are already using your outbox and inbox setups today.
