have you noticed nostr got a lot quieter in the last weeks? if you did, its probably because your notes are being rejected by naieve throttling on ALL the big relays.

you wont notice it when you post because clients dont surface this info to you, for all you know just nobody liked your post, but the reality is it did not post.

I just made a post about this a couple days ago: nostr:note1ka3pp0gc83cflnnhd58j3pehnk5z8g6f4evd4hjjtgcpvwkmwj2qjqp7w2

Using noStrudel, it will show you the status of every event generated from your account. I've started noticing that with any event whether it be a reaction, zap, note, etc. just as you mentioned, there's always at least a few relays that don't accept it for one vague reason or another.

The thing that really bothers me about it is that with most of them you can't go and see what rule you broke or what the specific cause was if they don't include it in the 5-6 word error.

nostrudel did a great job showing how simple it can be to show the status, now it needs outbox model for reading notes from follows and similar award winning UI for that also.

relays can easily have as many words or landing pages as possible, thats just a matter of giving them a reason to.. (eg, that their users can see the messages)

Agreed, it's UI/UX is still definitely rough and awkward in a few places. I like to actually swap between it and Gossip. Gossip feels even more weird, kind of like an application from the 90s or something, but I appreciate the amount of lower-level info it provides.

Thanks for the info... I guess in these specific cases it's probably like you said, they haven't really had a reason.
