Oddbean new post about login | logout Doing some initial testing of our new event ingress pipeline tonight! It’s insanely cool and already yielding great insights. Much easier to separate legitimate users from spam when you’re looking at 10 of their events instead of 1. nostr:note1x34ktps200flc3mxexzly6ky44gf99hde0wt07qvj3n907kylncq89n656
Oooh i like that.
We always figured we would need to build some type of “purgatory” db eventually but I’m pleasantly surprised by how enlightening it is out of the box.
I've been struggling with spam on my free relay, of course, and I've been thinking a lot more about spam filtering. I'm not operating anything as massive as nostr.wine, but I like the idea of a purgatory database because I've been trying to think of how I could categorize npub behavior by something other than timing. Having a whole separate database that you could just sit there and analyze would be useful.
I didn't pay close attention but if ReplyGuy only does one-off posts, what then? My approach as advertised since over a year now would be to give new pubkeys very limited allowance. No links, no images, little tags, no mentions and only few bytes.
