I'm seeing some really weird things on #amethyst. An npub I was interecting with is showing as "blocked" that I did not block and now cannot unblock (pops right back as blocked), and now a bunch of that same account's post are showing as reported by me - I didn't block/hide/report any of them...??

I might disagree with folks on here but I'm not about to report people! That's why we nostr - free to disagree without cancelling each other

Very weird

I did not block/report/hide these posts or this user...

It could be a new Spammer. You can disable the spam filter in the security filters.

npub showed up in the Spammers list, but I didnt put it there...

Yep, that is the spam filter, you can disable the filter or just follow the person to avoid it being added there.

Could you elaborate how the spam filter works in general?

If somebody posts the same exact message 5+ times in a short period, they are placed into the spam filter. The filter resets when the app restarts.

Are you looking at the Blocked Users in the Security filters?

That's coming from your mute list, saved on relays. Any client can add those to the list if they have your private key.

Guess I hadn't seen this in action before. Ok, I was getting concerned that my nsec had been compromised...
