The reply bot thing? Is it an attack or a slight nuisance? I've not blocked it yet even. But I assume it's quite easy no? 

 Its not just about block it and it's gone. It's massively flooding relays. I'm running a cache service for the Dvms that gets spammed and takes much longer as it needs to handle this bs. 

 I see, i had a feeling I wasn't understanding  

 Some relays try to protect themselves by adding aggressive rate limits, making it harder for regular people to post.  

 let's make #nostr antifragile as fuck. L F G 

 Surely this is a basic dos attack that was meant to be blocked by spam filters on relays?  

 I noticed my relay go down this morning too. Nostr in general seems just fine though! 

 I noticed it too, nfrelay.app strfry db (aggregator) increase quite big in the last few days
