 Is anyone else’s home feed getting spammed with a tonne of identical notes, all asking for donations?

It’s weird because I am not following any of these accounts, and they don’t include hashtags that I follow, so I have no idea why they are in my feed in the first place.

It’s making the #damus experience almost unusable lately.

Muting doesn’t seem to help much, since the spammer seems to be using many different npubs.

 You can mute phrases as well, which fixed the problem for me. 
 How does a person mute a “phrase” in #damus? 
 Tap on your profile picture on the top left corner to bring up the side menu. Tap “Muted”, and then tap the + button on the top right corner. Add the phrase in the text field and tap “Add mute item”. 
 Thank you for helping a Dan in need 🙏 
 I believe muting the word 'freefrom' solves this 
 The hashtags are hidden for Damus users. Just mute the phrase “freedom is running” and they will stop showing up in your feed. 
 They don't include hashtag in content. But include many hashtag in tags.
