I cracked another milestone with the nostr connect device. Very large events signing is now working much better. I've tested events up to 24kb in size.
Btw, a 24k websocket payload is mental.

You mean books? 😂
Contact lists
Is someone following a million npubs?
it doesn't need that many. 200 follows gives an encrypted message of ~24kb.
here's an example of the event data:

view the raw data to get the content wrapped onto new lines
JFC and you need to send the whole contact list on every new follow? That's crazy.
So the best way to spam the network would be to constantly follow and unfollow people to resend the whole contact list over and over again?
Yes. It doesn't seem an optimal solution
