Anyone else tired of the spammer reply bots?

If you're on amethyst you can add this (randomuser as its written below) in your hidden words section of security filters.

Works great!

In a similar vein, what paid relays do you guys use and recommend? Are there any that are buy once/cry once that you don't have to keep re-upping?

This works so good, that after adding "randomuser" to my hidden words, I couldn't find your post anymore to zap you. 😂

Thanks for the tip,, that bot is annoying. This will keep it quiet for a bit. Now, I can't zap you🙂‍↕️, it seems there is an issue with your getalby instance

Note, though, that the only reason adding that to your muted words works is because this spam attack happens to use that domain for their profile pictures. If they change what domain they are using, the spam will be back. It's a temporary band-aid at best.

Also note that while this works on Amethyst, your muted words may not carry over to other clients. Amethyst encrypts the muted users and muted words when it adds them to your mute list, and not all clients support decrypting them, or muted words in general.

As far as "pay once" relays go, there's nostr.wine.

stop using the most popular relays, they are spam relays, and stick to paid relays or smaller free relays.
