One of the things that surprises me the most about nostr is that most relays honor deletion requests.

πŸ₯Ή that means a lot to me

im glad to know that

I'd like to know about the ones that specifically do not.

is there like a list of ones that do and ones that don’t..

Helpful list right there

can't keep up/bullish! me

Agree. We can put it on Wikifreedia.

And spambots use this to endlessly create and delete events.

Why would they do that? Just to DoS relays?

I have no idea. They're probably testing the creation and deletion of events, and also DDoSing at the same time.

Mainly due to: Three "musketeers" most popular relay software honor it correctly (strfry, nostream, nostr-rs-relay). Unless someone really want to make archival relay without deletion πŸ˜…

I agree was expecting to see at least a few "archival relays" in the wild that keep everything forever but haven't come across any
