 Added the bot name to the hidden words list and my feed appears normal again. My question is this though, does all that spam clog the relays? I'm not actually "blocking" it, only hiding it. I'm OK with that, I'm just wondering if there's a computational burden on the relays, clients etc when literally every note is duplicated multiple times in its comments, and now comments are being duplicated as well.

 Yes and no. 

It's extra traffic. 

Client block lists only hide it, so you're still getting the info sent, annoyingly.

 That's how I understood it. I guess it's a test of the network like zapathons were, just way less enjoyable
