 Nostur fixes this. 
 The everything client 🤝 
 Truly is 
 The nest stuff is pretty amazing. I wonder if the number of active users of nests went way up because of this 
 Wot is a lazy and bad way. Nostr relay operators can easily fight it. I did it on my super relay  
 It works. It’s inaccurate to call it a “bad” way.  
 Admins can do it themselves without wot. Not hard at all. I will share everything 

Wot is just a retarded way to make an echo chamber
 
 What echo chamber? 33,000+ npubs can currently openly interact through my Nostur WoT, which is up by 2000 since a few weeks ago as my follows and their follows increase, and I can easily see any of the others outside it as I choose. “As I choose” is the key here.  
 Imagine having to follow someone so they have a voice on a social network 

 
 You can toggle it on and off 
 Does your fix work on any relay? 
 Seems like you just don't like that people can have different opinions about which solution is best for them. If so, you are in the wrong place! Check out mastodon. 
 By the way, i did both (i have a wot relay, a have a relay where i filtered out the spammers, and a i have a relay where i enforce NIP13 difficulty). I can choose what i want to see at any time by just switching relays. pretty cool, huh? 
 How does that work? The nip13 relay I mean? What’s considered proof of work to be able to write 
 Just like the NIP13 says: you need to "mine" an id for the note that starts with as many zeroes as the difficulty you set. In the relay i just check if the number of zeros matches the mined difficulty. 
 A missed opportunity by Vitor to bring ios Amethyst, but glad we have Fabian 
 Yes. Very grateful for Fabian 🕊️ 
 What is the Nostur solution?

Amethyst blocking image pfp URL works 
 WoT in the client 
 Will this mean that you won't see a new person replying to you tho? 🤔
 
 If the person is followed by someone you follow you will see it. If no one in the WoT is following I don’t think you will. You can also toggle this on and off 
 This works well for me. My Nostur WoT currently allows over 33,000 npubs to openly interact with me. Easy enough to toggle off or use the “see more” feature if someone new replies.  
 The reply bots all have the same url for the pfp? 
 apparently so.

it's not difficult to imagine who ever is behind to circumvent this solution lol. for the time being it works
 
 Definitely a clever way to block them. You just put in the pfp link into your mute words? 
 Yeah. 

But what do you do when spambots have no pfp? Lol 
 All the rest (wot, paid relays, mute list, pray, etc…) lol 
 yes but how https://i.nostr.build/aZv3tFADI5TirM6W.gif
