Which relays have you joined? I've tried a few, but with my whooping 24 followers I think that I'm mostly in read-only mode in most WoT relays for now.

@nprofile…wxvg, I'm curious (genuinely, this isn't an attack). Why do you think hiding your identity is a prerequisite for using Tor?
Many people, such as journalists and activists, use Tor very publicly to bypass censorship and access or share free information. Others run relays, maintain and integrate software, and advocate for Tor specifically to safeguard this freedom. Hiding their identities would contradict their own agenda.

There's a few different implementations out there, and they are configurable. @nprofile…x66a wrote https://github.com/bitvora/wot-relay which defaults to "I trust you if at least 3 people in my WoT follows you". This is configurable of course. The problem is, currently I don't have an easy way to know if folks inside a WoT relay are getting my notes. I know that you are getting this as you are using my IPv6 relay, but is utxo getting this note? I don't know.

Isn't the magical number 3 different people? I only have like 20 followers and have no idea if you or any of the cool cats running WoT relays can see my notes (I may just be replying into the void here). For instance, are folks at wss://wot.utxo.one currently getting my notes? I don't know. It would be much better if users could at least know if they are part of someone's WoT.

Yeahp. At least new user gets to see some content (other than spam).

Is there an easy way to check if I have enough followers in someone's WoT? I have not idea if I would be allowed in any of the relays mentioned above, and I don't know how to check this.

I've just disabled downloading from a few public relays, and the spam is basically gone.
If you're using Amethyst and struggling with spam, the ⬇️ (down arrow button) below each relay is clickable.

Thanks, @nprofile…pyug, for helping me out.

This made it much, much better. Thank you! Hopefully I'm not giving up on a lot of legit content, e.g., some welcome posts have disappeared from the timeline.

Ah, this is brilliant. I didn't know about the "re-broadcast on reply" aspect of Nostr.
One last question if you don't mind. Is there a way to stop downloading notes from a specific relay but still keep it in the general list? I want to write to public relays and still read from a few of them without adding a lot of relays as inbox. The ⬇️ button appears to be all of nothing at the moment (i.e., if I disable it I won't get posts from any of my General relays)

2024-09-19 10:46:34

- reply

Got it. So this means that you are writing to but not reading from public relays?
Not reading from any of the big public relays certainly works for me, but it also means blocking a lot of legit notes right? As in, I assume that most folks are only posting to big public relays.

Are you sure that you've only seen 5 spam posts in the lfays3 days? Amethyst is telling me that you are using public relays like damus.io, nos.lol, and nostr.mom. I'm often seeing more than 5 spam replies in these relays alone. Nostr "celebrity" posts are getting particularly hard spammed right now.

Thanks to you (and a bunch of Magic with Cloudflare - HTTP Redirects, Workers serving NIP-05 json, e-mail routing etc), mine are now also all [email protected].

Thanks for the Zapz @nprofile…fr2d! ⚡️⚡️⚡️

2024-09-19 01:14:15

Nice, I didn’t know this was possible!
I’m trying to do something similar with an HTTP redirect. Hopefully, [email protected] should be zappable (zapeable?) now.
#nevent1q…9nyj
I know this feels like Begging 101, but I swear it’s legit. Can anyone zap a small amount to help me test this?
By the way, this note uses Amethyst's "Split and Forward Zaps" feature, so if you zap this note, it should hopefully split sats three ways with @nprofile…qss4 (for putting the guide together) and @nprofile…9ns5 (for calling attention to it).

Done and done. I had to first click the "Add" button above and then "hold press" and individually add each custom emoji. It would be nice if the Add button could automatically make both emojis available.

Hi @nprofile…erqr,
It looks like your post got hit hard by spammers.
I'll still move my questions here just in case:
1. DM Relays:
* Could someone explain the concept of public but hidden DM relays for people who want notifications in Amethyst?
* Can you give an example of a public but hidden relay?
* What am I giving up in terms of privacy when using a public DM relay?
2. General Relays:
I would appreciate more details regarding the role of General relays. They seem to do more than just downloading content (e.g., Amethyst sends notes to General Relays unless you disable the ⬆️ option). It would be helpful to understand when and why it’s better to add a specific relay as Inbox or Outbox relay versus General relay.

I can relate. I build software for a living and consider myself a tech-savvy user. Even so, a lot of things about Nostr aren’t exactly intuitive (at least not yet). Don’t get me wrong, it definitely appeals to DIY folks, but it still requires quite a bit of digging to figure things out.

➕️1️⃣ There's already a great note about this here:
#naddr1qq…cq4q
However, a few things are still confusing to me.
For example, could someone explain the concept of public but hidden DM relays for people who want notifications?
Also, more details about General Relays would be appreciated. They seem to do more than just downloading content (e.g., Amethyst sends notes to General Relays unless you disable the ⬆️ option).

Can you really claim to be 'customer-driven' while isolating customers from engineers?
Great article by @kentbeck, as usual.

Derek, noob question if you don't mind: in clients such as Amethyst, should WoT relays like yours be configured only for General, Inbox, and DM (i.e., to avoid inbound spam)? Or should we also configure them for Outbox, Search, etc.?
