Oddbean new post about | logout
 ah, this is hilarious.. kinda.  why would someone make a req's over and over like this?  I suppose it returns all events from all authors since a certain time and then keep requesting newer.. but why the authors part?  Is this some kind of attempted DoS on strfry, to make it do extra work vs just making a query with since..  or is there some legit reason, like relays not allowing since queries? (besides keeping nostr weird) that you'd do this?
