Try other clients.

I'm the author of gossip, a desktop client, and I've been pushing for personal relays (NIP-65) where you can run your own and people who want to follow you will find it in your kind-10002 relay list and then pull your events from it -- this works with gossip and coracle today (at least). IMHO this is the only scalable long-term solution to the problem you're bringing up.

I use Nostr on five operating systems and approximately five to six clients including gossip. This is not about me.

Amethyst, being a flagship Android client, is widely used by most Android users, and its impact on the entire network is significant.

While this may not be a deal breaker for most casual users, they should be made aware of what is happening.

I sincerely believe this is easy to fix, just making this feature optional is enough imo.

I understand where you are coming from.

I'm personally, actually, deep deep within, a dick. If the world is all running over a cliff to their deaths, I don't warn them, I just let them all fall to their deaths. But I see you are a good guy.
