Nostr Web Client

And my relay went down again. Folks are using Cloudflare Workers to perform attacks and scrape the heck out of websites (not new or Nostr-specific, they just hit my relay hard this weekend). If you don't use Cloudflare Workers, do yourself a favour and deny all traffic from 2a06:98c0:3600::103.

Or if you want to be less draconian, e.g., allow Semisol workers above, apparently this is the correct WAF incantation:
