I've heard some people talking about a spam attack? I haven't seen any spam.
My personal chorus relay is still up and I'm watching the logs, it seems to be getting a lot of bad behavior, but it knows how to deal with that. "Too many subscriptions", "No such subscription", "Errored Out", "Reset", "Timed out (with no subscriptions)", Restricted, TLS handshake eof, ... none of that puts any significant load on the relay, they just get microbans so it can't happen too fast.
OK I see them now. Thankfully not too many, but fundamentally something to consider.
Gossip has "spamsafe" settings for relays. If you turn it off (saying "this relay is not spamsafe") then it will only fetch replies from people that you follow (we don't have WoT yet but that would be better).
Based on the 2 "ReplyGuy" messages I'm seeing, I guess I have listed wss://offchain.pub and wss://nostr.einundzwanzig.space as "spam safe" but they aren't. I'll just go flip the switch then.
