 At this point my NIP-04 DMs is just being used by spammers. The nostr:nprofile1qqsd236myjzpu489zzr6pxcx0jtrn04pezjnqft23a2pykyuszvwr3qpzemhxue69uhkummnw3ex2mrfw3jhxtn0wfnj7wttdn2 is becoming a spam tagger.  
 Yup. I have moved off NIP-04. It was great while it lasted, but now NIP-17 all the way! 
 this is what happens when relays don't use auth and give them out to everyone 
 Spammers n' scammers 
 Why aren't relay developers implementing NIP17? I haven't found one yet that supports it.  
 Many clients already offer, including 0xChat with is a client just for DMs and chats.  
 does this even affect relays?

oh

my relay already does, i just had a short exchange with vitor here about whether kind 5s should be given out to anyone if the relay auths... i decided that kind 5s are just must be public messages even if it signals an alert to bad guys of an event ID they may want to keep

getting into the late beta on this, release will be soon hopefully, sooner if i get sponsored to make it even better 
 Private: auth.nostr1.com or inbox.nostr.wine 
Public: nos.lol (this gets notifications to your) 
 There is also relay.0xchat.com 
 Do they support NIP17? I haven't seen that, but maybe the information I'm looking at hasn't been updated with the NIP17 implementation?  
 They do, yes.
