NIP-05 verification isn't exactly a spam filter, but it does filter out a LOT of spam. Look at how the disk space on my relay started rising once the spammers found it, and then went back to normal as soon as I started enforcing NIP-05 verification to write events.
Really useful return thanks! Do you think to enable Relay payments regarding thé spammers?
I want to keep it free and accessible as a free speech relay. I just don't want it filling up with Gigabytes of porn links and other such nonsense. Switching NIP-05 verification to 'enabled' in config.toml filters out most of the most egregious spam. It's easy enough to get NIP-05 verified and a lot of clients will do it for you. But spam bots usually aren't NIP-05 verified.
Yes you're right, we'll see if the spammers act as they are supposed to. Did you see this repo ?

Nice antispam feature
Oh it's a fork scsi-bug's nostr-rs-relay. I just added that to my watchlist. Thanks for pointing it out.
how can I do that
Depends on the relay implementation that you're running. I'm using this one: https://github.com/scsibug/nostr-rs-relay.git
There's a setting for it in config.toml
Really wish administrative controls were here. Be really good to have the ability to delete posts after a certain number of days
Is that not standard? I was going to ask if that were a setting you could enable.
I guess you can probably script it out on a cron job (especially if storage is postgres, e.g.), but I would have thought that was an absolutely no-brainer setting to have.
What relay software are you and #[0] using btw?
alot of legit people are not Nip-05 on their accounts.
Take this to the extreme and they effectively semi deplatformed.
Hello, What resources are you using to run this relay? CPU? Memory? SSD and Bandwidth?
