 Nostr is shitty. Basically. Mastodon or Fediverse instances don't even grow this much and they have over 1 million users 
 
 What's the cause? 
 Is that masses of reply-bot spam? 
 My relay blocks most of it  
 Sounds like you're answering a question I posted a while back about how much storage required to run a relay. Best to go big on I! 
 Just tried to zap this and couldn't. Got option to send message. Did you recieve or would a screenshot of error be useful? 
 I didn't see anything 

Sure send screenshot 
 Damus says invalid lightning address. Amethyst gives me this https://image.nostr.build/6d75428b36e65988fe5aa56bb88f6555257395eb931f1ca5d59b53df304e3ed1.jpg 
 Weird damus is using wrong url

 
 That screenshot is amethyst 
 Yeah.

I can click on my profile and zap myself fine in amethyst 

 
 Something to do with me using WOS? 
 I hear they have problems a lot 
 OK added poster.place to list. Tried to zap 1000sats just in case your wallet decided I might be Scottish. Maybe need to set a better wallet on my nostr! 
 See it! Ty very much 
 OK now very confused. Looking in WOS, not showing sent

 Err seriously, nothing showing my end. That's ummm troubling from the double spend perspective in lightning??? Am I missing something here or do we need to call Houston? 
 wait and see what happens lol 
 I do live in Costa rica. Potential pura Vida elememt. Even lightning can slow down here 
 I'm off to bed now. Nothing showing yet 🤣🙄 
 Let me know if there's anything I can try. Add your relay for example. Dunno. Me dumb with tech but fucking master at finding bugs (possibly correlated) 
 Damus just said invalid address with no other info 
 I just zapped you fine 
 Yup. Recieved
