Ok. Who wrote the bot experimenting with spmming / trolling bluesky via gateways on May 11th?

This shows that when we run Nostr services we need to think about spam controls. Kudos to nostr:npub108pv4cg5ag52nq082kd5leu9ffrn2gdg6g4xdwatn73y36uzplmq9uyev6 for having those on mostr.pub.

The TechCrunch coverage and headline implies it was all of Nostr doing it, which we know to be patently false. At the same time it paints Nostr in a bad light. As these new protocols grow and more money shows up, like the $150 million just raised by farcaster, we’ll see more of this stuff.

Wasn't the fediverse just nearly shutdown over a network wide spam attack a few weeks ago?
