Disable public relays for Global and Public Chats. There are tons of spam circulating and amethyst downloads it all if you don't filter out.

Guide for this, please?

Top right corner (stars), put in gray the peoples and global icons for each public relay, then post.

Ok yep that made a big difference

Gotta figure out how to teach people about relays and data usage via UI... 🫤

Can that be made default?

It is for new users. We can't change a user's existing setup, though.

True. Video explaining? Screen recording. Sats paid to those who repost?

To me, I assumed nothing global would load if I don't actually click on global?

Public chats always load because of the notifications icon. Even if you hide/report spammers, events still come.

Would love to have a relay filter to download things that have not been reported/hidden.

It’s a tough challenge. This tweet from #[7] is very relevant to the problem too as we think about keeping people through onboarding. https://twitter.com/anitaposch/status/1626567637575647233?s=46&t=u_05-74uc8hM1IgFMT64NA

True. Without massive simplification and tons of local cache optimizations, it will be hard to use in places with broken connections.

Another relay… on it #[8]

Thanks for the h/u Vítor. Any fixes directly from Amethyst on the road map? Damus defaults to only showing paid relays for example
