Oddbean new post about login | logout This is much less entertaining, but technically there is no *Nostr* rate limiting. Only relays. 😘
Exactly. The whole point is that a single, or even all relays except yours, can be evil and you’ll still be a first class-citizen

Wish some people had made a lot of noise about outbox model which solves this issue!
lol indeed 😂 Human behavior takes the easy path until enough pain is felt to change paths. Maybe enough relays doing this would create enough pain. Or maybe it would do the opposite and just motivate more people to centralize onto fewer relays that are being subsidized by their operators. Idk the best solution. I just know that that restricting normal/typical user activity is a sure way to lose users and NOT grow nostr 🤷♂️
Upgrade to 'first class' today, find a relay to join @ relay.tools ＼(°o°)／ 🦖🐳👨💻 nostr:nevent1qqspax52g7rals8m9jrdup0ufw5phlh075zsnh7qw4sd8dh466fm8lqpzfmhxue69uhkummnw3eryvfwvdhk6tczyrafsj7hmweg9ur7zmn6apajdg48hxuskujx53rhrux0ttjcqx84yqcyqqqqqqgyfg8kl
lol yes technically 😂 but if it’s 1 of 2 of the non-paid bootstrap relays provided by one of the largest clients, then for those users it could feel like “nostr” rate limiting, especially if there’s no guidance or onboarding to using additional relays.
