Shill me a relay that can handle 2000+ follows. They all seem to be breaking for me.
Discussion
Is that because there is more than 2k p-tags in the kind 3 event?
Not sure where it goes wrong. REQ seems fine, just the sub doesn't return anything, most of the time.
Default max tags on strfry relays is set to 2000 tags

That sounds exactly like something I had optimized in my attempt to program a relay, using the Bloom filters you mentioned elsewhere.
For a relay there are two phases when processing a REQ: First, the DB gets queried and then a subscription is held in memory and applied to every new event.
A relay could ignore a big REQ based on its size and not do anything with it, return the stuff from DB and kick it from memory or keep it in memory to check every new event against it.
My relay took a different approach: When EOSE is reached, the REQ got compacted using Cockoo filters in order to make the subscription cheaper at the cost of occasional false positives. See here:

You should be OK with filter.nostr.wine 🍷
You probably also have a bunch of dead users you can unload.
🎶lists were a mistake🎶
There should be a hard limit of Dunbar's Number at 150 forcing you to curate your list to focus on quality. Known identities can be unlimited, but actual follows 150.
Could you try wss://nostr.coinfund.app
I'd be curious to know how it goes as there's no current limit set. The relay is using my WIP relay #Nosflare
