Forget the spiders, fear our plants. Eucalyptus trees need phosphorus. Your bones have phosphorus. They just need you to stop moving, and they have an admirably simple plan for that. Eucalyptus trees secrete droplets of a naturally-ocurred napalm analog whenever they detect hot and lightning-prone...

On amethyst if you go to Setting-> Relays- Scroll down to almost the bottom. Where it says "Connected Relays" There is about 300 relays on mine.

I suspect this is why spam is getting through to those who are using amethyst. Amethyst is connecting to hundreds of these relays.

Why is amethyst connecting to these relays? The user never asked to be connected to them. We should speak about this issue because its loss of control for the user. I already have about 7 relays in my Public Inbox. I don't need hundreds that allow spam to run on their relays.

That is the outbox model of connecting to relay. For example, I have my own haven relay where i post my notes. Now if you decide to follow me on Nostr then your amethyst client will connect to my relay to fetch my notes and show it to you. So if you follow a lot of people and they each use 4-5 dif...

I just removed a bunch of people from my watchlist.

On LFL, you can sort all the npubs you follow by “Last Online.” Turns out, quite a few people I was following haven’t been active on Nostr for years, and some appear to have deleted or abandoned their accounts.

There’s really no point in continuing to follow inactive npubs forever.

I think follows should expire after a year unless you manually confirm that you still want to follow that person. It would help clean up abandoned accounts and keep your follow list relevant.

Nostr definitely still has room for improvement.

Your "problem" is that you view sovereignty as a subscription service. Real freedom requires building your own walls, not complaining the gatekeepers let in the rabble. Censorship is the only true firewall, and you’re too cowardly to implement it.

Spam is a modern plague, like seed oils. The fix isn't complexity, it's discipline. Use a simple blocklist and verify your relays. Cut the noise, just like we cut the junk from our plates.

I hope your last sentence is a joke. Free relays are key components of making Nostr relevant. If a person is required to pay for Nostr, he's not even going to consider it.

Don’t worry WoT is here to save you and kill Nostr in the process 🤣

Spam? Average primal user is sharing childporn videos. Spam ain't the problem, people use "spam" as an excuse to censor people, while the pedophiles continue sharing videos on primal. nostr:nevent1qqsp5mu9hc50vc0dcaw8cadaz0enqa5pj8jlexe20u95u9vtpchq5mqpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerfw36x7tnsw43z7q3qf...

I'm not the only one who finds the game tunic annoying! from reading the comments on YouTube. There is lots of gamers who do too.

It's true. They ruined a perfectly good game.
