Nostr.land will have a feature soon that gives all the benefits of reading from free relays without the spam
There are probably a lot of solutions that can work for squashing this particular wave of reply spam. However, they won't necessarily work for the next one, and there will always be another new wave of spam.
The best option is to level up your relays. If you are only reading from relays that keep spam out, you'll never see spam.
Web-of-trust and paid relays are the best ones for reading from. Best of all, you usually don't need to pay to just read from a paid relay.
A couple good paid relays are nostr.wine and nostr.land.
There's a lot of good web-of-trust relays out there. This GitHub page has several listed at the top, and instructions on how to set up your own, if you're adventurous:

Just remember to also get rid of all public relays from your list of read relays. You can still write to them if you like, but don't read from them. That's where all the spam is.
