Since 99.9% of people are normal and won't follow that many people it's probably ok to not optimize for the weird behavior. If there is one special client that is capable of following >2000 people without trouble then you'll have to use that since you are the special case. Do you agree?
Also I think it's perfectly fair for relays to reject such giant lists of followers, but doesn't prevent you from keeping your follow list stored locally and still follow everybody, just not share that information with the world. https://github.com/mikedilger/gossip (and probably Nostur?) does allow for that.
Thank you for making me feel special! But I don't think 2000 is really such an extraordinary number?
I'm familiar with the underlying logistics, and jamming everything in a single REQ will currently blow stuff up. In an age of multi megabyte websites and gigabyte photo's, 2000 keys is a really tiny number. The array itself is ~160kb JSON. Even for a phone that's peanuts, let alone for a server. AFAIK most relay implementation bumped their max list size a while ago, but that obviously isn't the only issue here.
I never got gossip to work, as I couldn't get it to pick up my follows as well, even when it was smaller. But should indeed try it again.
Looks like the connection to purplepages and wikifreedia websockets are not going anywhere.

TIL nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg is capping my follows to 1600 and I cannot follow anyone else because of an ominous warning. The only app that kinds works now is Amethyst, at least it shows I'm following close to 2500 people, but the timeline doesn't refresh automatically.
If your client does something with follows, please test your app with my npub. A lot of stuff breaks when you go over ~2000 follows.
And I know I can trim it down, as probably a lot of follows are stale. But that's not the solution.
Am I doing anything wrong? I wanted to stress-test with my 2487 follows.
This is true for all written communications. Emails, private texts, letters, blogs, notes.

Framework introduces a RISC-V mainboard. Not a powerhouse, but the fact you can rip out the normal mainboard and put this into the existing frame makes it very interesting for RISC-V tinkering.

I have a similar but slightly less annoying gripe with the tiny JBL Go. They have start-up and shutdown chimes. It's not even very loud, if you turn the device on during the day. But what's normal during the day can be extremely loud if the whole house is asleep. I just want to listen to a little bit of music on the lowest volume, but before I can do that, it has to wake up the whole house first.
Just a tiny - beep - is fine, which they had on the first JBL Go. But in the name of progress, all subsequent models have have a loud DUM DUMMM.
JBL are assholes.
