This will hurt a lot of VPN and TOR users, probably 🐶🐾🤔
Discussion
TOR users can post more than 1 note per minute? How? It's super slow when I buy my drugs
Exit nodes could get rate limited by relays if a lot of nostr users are coming from there
And blastr or any aggregators, including any zappers that post zap events 🐶🐾🤔
If there’s a good use case i’m open to whitelisting. I already whitelist a wine relay around the rate limiter
yeh I'm VPN only but tbh if the CPU went down to 0% there is a lot of leeway to up the rate limit so it's not only 8 per minute. either way it's better for the relay overall due to spam so it is what it is.
damus relay always had rate limiting, its just more efficient now :)
damus ios will retry when rate limited with backoff, so people shouldn’t notice it really. This is just annoying for spammers
nip-42
I don’t think you can enable nip-42 with strfry plugins, but maybe it would be interesting to generalize strfry’s plugin system to send arbitrary events
nostr:npub10npj3gydmv40m70ehemmal6vsdyfl7tewgvz043g54p0x23y0s8qzztl5h built one
yall client devs can write code to sign events to shitpost but change the envelope and your brains fall out
