Nostr relays have been attacked by DDoS and bots in the past. Provide a solution to that instead of shaming relay operators from your ivory tower.

Fund me and I will create a solution. I don't work for free.

I am not in an easy situation. Would do it for fun if I could.

A cheap work beggar has been found.

Your answer is equivalent to a fat person saying, ā€œall that’s in front of me is this chocolate barā€

There are MANY options. First of all there’s other CDNs, Bunny accepts Bitcoin.

There’s others that accept government money, Akamai, CDN77, Fastly, StackPath, even fucking Verizon bro. Any random cunt can rent a server and do it, why do you have to bow allegiance to ONE AND ONE ONLY company on your ā€œdecentralizedā€ network?

Then that’s just the regular CDNs, then you got the cryptocurrency based ones covered in this article,

And there's even more crypto ones doing docker containers not covered.

Yours is essentially a strawman as I did not say Cloudflare was the only solution.

But I am glad you did exactly what I told nostr:npub1tzeftgd977uw04g8waavhjlhdydqkww8drdzd9fzp2y6dk59efnskd43nf should do: provide solutions instead of shaming relay operators.

Those are not solutions, those are alternatives to the most problematic actor. The problem remains the same.
