Anyone knows how Nostr's reporting works in detail? I can't find any information on it. From what I can see, it seems easy to create thousands of Nostr accounts automatically and spam. How do you counter this? I don’t want #nostr to become like X… And how to do it without it deviating into censorship? #asknostr

Reports can be used or ignored as any client sees fit. As far as I know Amethyst is the only one that makes any use of them, and the option can be turned off. I believe how it works in Amethyst is if five or more people you follow have reported a user then that user gets filtered. If the reports are by users that you don't follow then they don't count, which prevents someone from spamming reports with new users.
