Oddbean new post about login | logout Paid relay operators are incentivized to spam free relays. Just saying …
make them all paid
So… do exactly as they hope?
what about nip 42 auth relays? could there be a way to as a relay not just auth npubs but you could auth other relays too? thinking trust get you in...breaking trust gets you kicked out 🤷♂️ just spit balling here
There are other ways to block it tho as a relay operator. Still paid relays FTW
Exactly what you’d do as a shady paid relay operator. 1. Spam 2. Argue for paid relays because technically it’s true and it’s nice to support the network.
My free relays are getting spammed like crazy, but you do you man. This is not fun for anyone.
To spam free relays... that don't intelligently block IPs. Now if the spammer went & bought a CIDR block with their paid relays proceeds... 😏
