 going to spend some time juicing up noteguard to ip block people who excessively abuse the rate limiter, by tracking attempted writes per second more accurately 
 then hopefully everyone can just run noteguard to block reply guys for good 
 rate limiter is blocking 80% of it but some still slip through. If they are ip blocked it should slow them down even more 
 cool! i just installed noteguard on relay.coinos.io -- happy to test out the juiced up version when it's ready 
 The distributed spam attacks will be an interesting problem to solve 
 nip05 is the way, can stop it now. 
 Nostrich.house ROFL 
 At least it's not for free to rent new domains... 
 its solvable, im just juggling two client releases and now managing a large scale spam attack on my relay. nostr is never boring at least 😅 
 I understand rate limiting from my recent discovery and use of obtanium and github.  A fair control... 
 what was the issue? 
 No issue, I just saw the term "rate limiting" and it reminded me of my insane attempt to use github as my F-Droid app store replacement via obtaining... That message would pop up a lot for a cheapskate like me... 😁 
 ... via obtanium... 
 Goodbye, Tor users 
 Not sure what tor users expect on public relays with no signup requirement. If whatever exit node you’re going through is being used to spam my relay, its going to be blocked 
 Thoughts on rate limiting event/req messages per websocket connection rather than IP? 
 pretty easy to get around by spawning multiple connections after each other. IP is way better 
 along with all the legitimate users 
 Tor circuits have IDs that could be used instead of IPs. Of course, these are only visible for hidden services. 
 Doesen't the circuit change with every reconnection? 
 Thanks for all you do to make the nostr experience even better 🙏🙏🙌🙌
