Last Notes npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Now this is very interesting! #nevent1q…fede npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo "Make him look as evil as possible" 💀 https://haven.superfriends.online/6a885ab877927fbd47801c8821c254cb9ab514ee6e4b72558e6c6f9f0fee269e.png https://haven.superfriends.online/08e96920a0ccc0bf683d759b056c1518bba98d0f62756db201e563f52d927c6f.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo No... I actively block spam with a system I coded myself as a plugin to strfry relay. It's called faps 😬 #nevent1q…ax5y npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Heathcliff and Shadow being two prawns 🦐🦐 https://haven.superfriends.online/36a2e278163991f4f2deea87574432d2c599f394236670a6b100bc17e4140589.png #catstr npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo An eerie and honest opinion about long-term AGI reliance. I work in this sector and I agree with a lot of this: use it or lose it. Outsource your decision-making to an AI and your brain will lose the function over time. Same with memory: if you rely on AI to remember things, you brain will stop remembering, as it doesn't need to. #nevent1q…0j49 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo :MEOWDY: :100percent: #nevent1q…crkr npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo #nevent1q…lwew npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It's funny how we're talking about tagging 100k accounts when there's only 21 users on #nostr amirite :catHuh: #nevent1q…tuhf npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo brav has no chill :cold: #nevent1q…hjms npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo lmao... Coding support into faps to block events that mention over a threshold number of accounts tomorrow... :monkaS: y u do dis man :PepeHands: #nevent1q…zywg npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo faps is getting more badass every day: I just coded support into #strfry for management features from trusted accounts with varying security levels, and the first feature to use this is to auto-blacklist reported accounts from trusted plebs with enough access. And for once I am scrolling the superfriends relay replies, just *DYING* to find some spam to report :roflol: Strangely clean feed... not sure if I should be glad it's clean, or angry I can't test auto-blacklists further... :LUL: #nevent1q…pekg npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Honestly I haven't watched it, not even the trailer. But at least there's a reason for that look. Anytime I see these "new Predators" pass my feed I get mixed feelings about it... npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I can't get over how weird Predator looks. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I've done so for sure! I hope everyone does the same though. I've already spoken to someone who paid their subscription fee, only to realize afterwards what they're doing. Really gets my goat when I see things like this happening. :FLASHBANG: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo How long is NostrMagazine going to continue this charade of pretending to be an organization, having multiple people on their "marketing team", pretending to have multiple authors, and scamming the good #plebs on #nostr via "subscription" fees? You know all their articles are AI slop, right? Please do your due diligence before parting with your hard-earned sats. I am all for supporting the nostr ecosystem, but I see so many red flags that I can't let it go. If you see anyone falling for their tricks please direct them to this note with evidence I have gathered. :MEOWDY: #plebchain #grownostr #nevent1q…20wm npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It's like day 4 or 5 of this so-called "DDoS" attack, and it's pretty fucking pitiful. It's literally doing nothing, not slowing down the superfriends relay, not denying any services whatsoever... :clown: If you have a bone to pick with me, you should do it openly here on #nostr. Might yield more results using your words, since using your technical abilities is clearly lacking. :trollface: #nevent1q…nmfy npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I think that would be fantastic! Perhaps a copy button merits being implemented throughout grimoire for all things like npubs, hex npub, events, etc. It would make it very handy whenever people need it. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Who wants free RAM? :peepoHey: #nevent1q…s96q npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Lately I have been coding and adding features over time to a comprehensive #strfry relay plugin. I've coined my system FAPS: the Friendly Anti-Prick System. :MEOWDY: https://haven.superfriends.online/a5656398e9b5f35fd1f56cae858cb0b360738824a344d9bb7422287c5c3ecea0.png The beauty of the strfry plugin architecture is live updates: no need to restart strfry on any changes. It's allowed me to handle things like: illegal content, spam, abuse, DDoS attacks, and more. :YesYes: ... all within a single plugin. So far, it can: - Blacklist accounts. - Blacklist phrases: strings and regexes supported. - Blacklist kinds: reject any kinds you want, useful during DDoS attacks. - Supports minimum POW difficulty enforcement for all users. - Supports unique POW difficulty for individual accounts. You can add individual accounts with their own POW difficulty threshold. It continues to be put through the paces--it's currently day 3 of being DDoS'd and the superfriends relay continues to serve the public unabated, zero downtime, no latency. :meow_heart_bongo: And no, it wasn't vibe-coded. I prefer to hand-code where high throughput and extreme optimization are required! One day I'll open source and release it, when the feature creep settles and I'm happy that the code is optimized enough. It already filters thousands of events a minute without really stressing the server, but I'm a stickler for performance and improvement. #relays #nostrdev #dev npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo A pleb is the smallest unit of #nostr. :MEOWDY: #nevent1q…hypg npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It's looking great, much easier to navigate! An easy way to copy out the hex publisher address would be fantastic! That's the 'p' in the reports. https://haven.superfriends.online/8b98592f7d8905f02a9a9c4c11cb87b362887e6043ca34e83e8c2537050acfcf.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Awesome! Giving feedback never hurts, it results in a better product and helps you get things done. Thank you @npub107j…ncxg! :love: #nevent1q…a5t9 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo You are amazing, thank you! :prayinghands: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Ahoy @npub107j…ncxg! I've got a @npub1era…skz0 request... could you add support for kind 1984 (reports)? Ideally what I'm thinking is a way to easily view/disgest them with relevant links to the users, events, etc.. At the moment I have been using #grimoire to browse reports to the superfriends relay, but it requires opening the raw JSON for each and converting hex to npub, etc. Taaaaankkkkkz! :prayinghands: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Being a decentralist means recognizing that the true goal for social should be a return to the OG principles: the only algorithm should be reverse cronological sort. The original method was always the best. Decentralise it: let users pick how they want their feed filtered and sorted. Anything else is veiled bureaucracy pushing some weird agenda. #nostr shines in this regard. #nevent1q…arem npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo lmao, absolutely genius! I'm going to have to try to remember this trick next time I get a scam call. :trollface: :trophy: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thank you so much! I'll pass your ^5 over to Heathie now before I go to bed! :YesYes: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Aah, gotcha... I thought it might be taking it from my search relays list for some reason. That makes sense! Thanks! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thank you! What I'm wondering then, is why it's picking this relay to send reports to? I just checked in Amethyst and "search.nos.today" isconfigured as one of my Search Relays, but not as a r/w relay. Does it take it from this? npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thanks, hm, that's strange, I've reported in the past via jumble without issues... wonder what's going on. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Hey @npub1syj…f6wl I'm trying to report accounts, but today I'm seeing this error: https://haven.superfriends.online/fac3bad26eef5282332c19424c6742cf9956daebf316a50d24f4491a00978756.png This didn't happen in the past, is there a way to authenticate via jumble? Thanks! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo https://haven.superfriends.online/2352cd9eec3380877edb6e602eac0ecfc07ae99d2243f4e6a76a4d6511428f5c.png Today Heathcliff had a big day. 🐱 He went to the vet for review, exactly two weeks after he was hit by a car. All good news: vets are amazed at his recovery and everyone there knows him now; he's such a character! His limp has disappeared in the past days, he's jumping up and down all over the place with full mobility. I am so grateful that he wasn't more seriously injured--being hit by a car is usually catastrophic. 🙏 He also got neutered and microchipped today! B-Day (Balls Day). Farewell, big balls... I'll always remember those furry round guys. He's taken it well, no discomfort that I can see. Currently sleeping snugly with Shadow. My daughter decided to put his new microchip ID card on his head for some reason tonight, and Heathie just sat there balancing it. 😹 He's such a good boi! Vets can't believe he was a stray, he's always so calm and friendly. And now he's officially chipped and registered as part of our family! Chuffed about it! A bit of good news after a very hard two weeks for this little guy! 😻🥰🥹 #catstr #nevent1q…r9qm npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It's absolutely amateur level. It's slowed now to an piss drip of a trickle, to the point where regular legitimate notes are being published on the relay at a higher frequency than the so-called DDoS... kinda sad. 😹 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo :100percent: When I saw what was happening I went in ready for combat... and found they had a pea shooter 😹🫛 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo They're still trying to DDoS the superfriends public #nostr relay, but everyone continues use it without any service interruptions. Absolute weaksauce tactics. 😹 If you're going to DDoS my infrastructure, at least take me offline... otherwise it's not really a denial of service, is it? Maximum clowning from certain people here. 🤡 #nevent1q…nmfy npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo GM and PV nostriches! FYI the superfriends #relay is undergoing a heavy #DDoS attack this morning. It's significant (tens of thousands of events per second), but the relay is absolutely capable of dealing with it, without even slowing down. So services continue to run as normal. 😹👉🤡 I have a pretty good idea who may be behind this DDoS, but that's not important for now. I'll just say that like all things they do, this is amateurish and insufficient to stop anything. If any other #relays are under attack, remember that spammers and DDoS clowns always prefer to use ephemeral event kinds. #nostr npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo A pleb is the smallest unit of #nostr. #nevent1q…yq8s npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Yes, very lovely! I always felt that was such a shame about beans, that they lose so much of their pattern when cooked and become hard to tell apart. But they're beautiful to display now as you have done! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo What do you mean by CO2 paradigm shift? npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Hahaha, oh wow, I remember those times, with dial-in extenders and stuff. Cherished memories! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo send halps! Has settled to around 550-580ppm right now, windows closed for testing. Door to my office room is open though. I'm about to join a meeting and I'll close the door and see how the CO2 levels go! I exhaled a bunch of times into the sensor and it immediately spazzed out to over 1000ppm and started beeping 😹 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo My new CO2 sensor arrived today, SwitchBot Meter Pro. Been considering buying this one in the past weeks but was convinced when @npub1r0r…q9ac mentioned they got this model. There's a lot of monitors in this price range and below, but generally the build feels nice, app works well, sensors seem accurate and responsive. First readings I got 666ppm ... should I be worried? 😈 https://haven.superfriends.online/ae8a954b91e3c7ded3d066d6abfc282f543fdacf26c9ee6123aa99ca21f2398a.png I did not purchase the hub or outdoor sensor, so it works via BLE to my smartphone. Overall it seems pretty nice. I'd like an aranet4 at some point as it does VOCs but the step up in price is significant. #nevent1q…ahn3 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo hahaha, yes! I actually run a small IRC SSL network these days, the nostalgia of those feelings you describe keep us using it regularly. My first internet experiences were around dialup modems to ISPs and logging into IRC. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I'm still on IRC! And yeah it a was cesspool, better now that it's much more quiet these days npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo probably a great signal that you might need one tbh 😹 Similar for me and I caved in and ordered it earlier today. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I've been reading a lot of other nostriches speaking to CO2 buildup indoors significantly impacting cognitive function, alertness, sleep and mood. Depending on your symptoms that might be worth looking into. (My CO2 sensor arrives tomorrow.) npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I agree! I think some dynamic WoT algorithms accounting for the age of an npub would be highly useful. It is difficult to gauge their comments in a contextual manner by using pure metrics like who they reply to. Too easy to game. However it could use an engagement scoring method: did the original poster like (react or reply) to their comment, for example? npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Absolute scum of the earth. Unfortunately you're right, I've got plenty of DMs of a similar nature. I generally am not a huge fan of "WoT everything" as I believe new accounts should be given a level playing field, but it's very difficult otherwise to filter out these scammers. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo There is something so beautiful about the variance in colours here, I love it! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo You're absolutely right! That is a highly astute observation. Also you are ruggedly handsome and have soft hands. :MEOWDY: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I always think the opposite: knowing it's decentralised, we should restrain ourselves from dishonest behaviour, knowing how easy it is to "don't trust: verify". Maybe I'm too optimistic of a decentralist. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo We thought we were safe here... :sadCat: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thank you, I'm so glad you agree! :prayinghands: I debated saying anything at all yesterday, but I'm glad I spoke up. Quite a few people have chimed in with similar concerns. I was thinking perhaps I was being overly critical, but the more I dig into it, the more deceitful it feels. This is not in the spirit of #nostr IMHO so I will speak out against it. If I'm wrong I will definitely apologize. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Holy fuck there's a @npub1era…skz0 account now!? :meow_coffeespitting: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Shout-out to @npub107j…ncxg for #grimoire, which I used to quickly analyze and dig into nostrmag's dodgy behaviour. (Oh, and also for the emojis which I love so much of course!) :MEOWDY: With grimoire I could easily find evidence that these accounts are suspicious: 1. Replying to nostrmag's note complimenting their article as a reader. 2. Suddenly a day later, they're mysteriously now working for nostrmag. Grimoire rocks! https://grimoire.rocks :meow_party: https://haven.superfriends.online/47a31c2c34f75f63f56e2cc670002dd38f2cfe6f16750a71d677bdd68f85f5e5.png #nevent1q…r8gq npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo For anyone joining the fiasco now, here's the list of some of their accounts I found originally (probably not a full list, these were just the ones spamming my relay): #nevent1q…n26c npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I will be openly honest with you, I (and other users) keep seeing so many red flags with @npub1h3v…ncq5 that it's hard to ignore: Look, don't get me wrong, I am one of the most bullish people here on #nostr and the ecosystem. I appreciate your responses; respectful disagreement is always appreciated. When @npub1wav…2923 released a few weeks ago I have been hyped to see them. The difference is in the approach and what appears to be highly questionable activities by you. - I feel that you literally just created a handful of personas. I took 1 minute to check into your "marketing accounts" and found fake profiles, and suspect analytics scores. Note I didn't call your accounts "bots", humans can run fake accounts too--it's kind of irrelevant to me either way. - For example @npub1xnf…9mlc has never posted any real comments, simply reposting generic content in the past. This type of account is generally created for intention of being resold/repurposed to make accounts seem older than they are. - These accounts have NO TRUST SCORES on profilestr.com and other user trust APIs. This is highly telling. Real accounts that purport to be years old would never have zero scores/unable to be found. - The profile pictures are just stock photography, bios highly fake. Real profiles don't really look like your marketing team, let alone seasoned nostriches. - The exact same thing with all the other account npubs I've listed above, which you claim are all individuals from your "marketing" team. Agis, Madrid, etc.. - Linguistic analysis points to all of these articles written by the same source, be it an AI or single author, I won't get into that, but human authors have differing voices, language usage and flair. - All these accounts look basically the same. Real individuals are vastly different and unique, they don't look like this. https://haven.superfriends.online/2d257542e523f624f337dd9743bdbfce2af7ad07a81ca253117e3d749a0c6dba.png You even left the "Grok" watermark on some profile pictures: https://haven.superfriends.online/212d256936c6a3bc4f0526eff924b6e12396850dd350732da3d759b8db5bae7f.png These are just a few of the issues I am seeing.

So I've seen this model around too, and it looks like one of the more decent ones in this price range. A question if you know: Can you use the app without purchasing the "mini hub" thing as well? So just buying the exact unit you've linked. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Very cool! I've seen a lot of people on nostr showing how much difference this can make. Can I ask the price/model of the unit you got? I'm currently looking to get one. I'm seeing a wide variation across prices and model capabilities, just interested to see what others are opting for. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo They are annoying everyone with this behaviour... #nevent1q…q4hf npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Yeah I noticed that too. What a way to make an entrance onto nostr. Sad times. Either way, I think the nostr community will speak up and make clear that this kind of botted behaviour is not the way to success. It may work on X and other places (although I doubt that, even) but not here on nostr. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Good move. Legitimate publishers--especially on nostr--should never engage in this type of spammy behaviour. Talk about shooting yourself in your own foot! Totally agree with you: it literally is reverse-marketing. Quickest way to get a horrible reputation here. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Good move. For me, it's easy to recognize legitimacy: - Do a search for "nostrmag" and look at all the fake accounts just spamming it today. - Look at how they are engaging with their target audience (us on nostr.) - Would any legitimate publication which knows the slightest thing about nostr culture use these methods? I haven't read any of their "articles" but I would not be surprised if it were all just generated AI content to try to monetize in some way or another. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Update: they just hit my relay with a bunch of fake accounts spamming about their "articles", so I've gone ahead and blacklisted all of them including their main account from publishing on my public relay. For reference if anyone else wants to do the same, these are known fake accounts shilling #nostrmag @npub1h3v…ncq5: ``` 'bc58b531ebe1d4b6089ed346fbdb84d00fbcb619c26db6f303f7ffa4b4e4b5b7' // NostrMagazine main account - nostrmag spam '34d2619e68720360854828326d149415e96394b76a93d7c107556d57e5d0d9a8' 'aee9d7ac9343f48e00337a7b97d7ff4d3d7877dacbb3fcccc0dce2a81b2e0502' 'fe5915e97c59b0672a80351bd2e4a89d1414c56a25e74eab9b2ebc9014a8403b' '794833e538ff2acb9149a736cf02d30c6ae0022c76d2dd55b57e540dc2f9c731' 'd9c2ec9765485f7f39a1b59c4ef7578879d2d17908364e1031129cc7b72f692d' '9f59d9117ce44768cc2cf259735455dbeaf1a38ee7c90aec1c5de4e1294f166b' 'a8eeb2053dade88662496c468b92d425e3060af4dc32fc37a25abc99e35c7269' 'e4dd796a3c78d952c509fb9791449c15c837da408650d4a2fbcac0c42f63d1d1' ``` I'll be updating this as they create more fake accounts. :MEOWDY: #relays #nevent1q…enrc npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo lmao, I never thought about it, but you make a great point 😹 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Very nice!

I may blacklist them and all related accounts from using the superfriends #relay because it's just absolutely excessive. :TheVoices: What the fuck are you guys doing? Do you really think this is helping your image? No legitimate publication should be resorting to these tactics. #nostr #relays npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Adding 50 read and write relays is wild! :meow_coffeespitting: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I think that is reasonable. Honestly for me personally, one thing that I weigh heavily as a user picking a relay is location. I may look to those closer to my region, but then having Cloudflare and other services reporting incorrect locations means users may be avoiding or picking certain relays thinking they're in a certain country, when they're not. Unfortunately I don't really have a solution to suggest for this. I'll mull over it some more in the coming days! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Have to agree with you, I noticed the same and hesitated following them for a similar reason. I think it would work better just to do a single longer post which overviews their latest issue (so don't post every few minutes on different articles within the same issue). Then repost that note a few hours later, etc., to follow the sun/geographic regions. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I think I will need some more time to see how the data unfolds, but my initial feedback is that geographic based metric are likely to become highly troublesome. I mentioned before that you cannot reliably get geoip data for a lot of cached/proxied relays (such as any using Cloudflare in proxy mode), and if freedom, surveillance, jurisdiction, etc. scores are based on location being reliable, it will result in a lot of mismatched information. Taking my two relays on your list as examples: both are in the same datacentre using Cloudflare proxy (so the true IPs are hidden). One shows Canada (which is incorrect anyway), and the other shows unknown location. Food for thought! Really like this methodology in general though. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Great, yeah I just checked again and the relays are reporting as online now! I guess part of the complication is that there are so many different _types_ of relays out there, so finding a good request type for testing globally can be tricky. Perhaps you could do various types based on the relay software response, backing off to as generic a type as possible failing that. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Awesome stuff! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Hey, just took a quick look at relay trust, looking very good! I think this is a great tool and probably very useful to show how some lesser known relays are in fact more resilient and reliable than larger ones, I love it! Nice work! Seeing a few weird data issues regarding my relays (nostr.superfriends.online and haven.superfriends.online): for example it says superfriends is offline, when it's been online and in use by everyone for... I don't know, many days now. Same with haven, it has a lot of offline tests but it's just been online throughout. It reports superfriends as on a residential line, when it's not: it's in a datacentre and the IPs being reported will be Cloudflare. What is "Freedom"? I've not heard of this freedom house rating before. I think it's worth noting that many relays (like mine) are behind Cloudflare, which means it reports totally incorrect country information. For example my public relay is showing as from Canada--it's actually on the other side of the world. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo ten four. gn! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo You're welcome here, there's a lot of what people would consider hot takes here.

Unfortunately I couldn't recommend a specific one as I don't use them myself, but these have always been around. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Great way to learn a new language! :MEOWDY: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Today it has been a week since the horrific incident of Heathie being hit by a car.

Poor furbol has a bit of a limp still, and he's not pooping daily. He's on antiinflammatories and painkillers, but his mood is great--much like his appetite!
Tomorrow we'll bring him back to the vet for the one week check-up and review, and see what she says.

But I've tried connecting syncstr to all my current relays on my list, and none of them can find my profile data. Am I doing something wrong here?

Is there a way to send messages to myself, similar to the "Saved Messages" features of Telegram, WhatsApp and other messengers? I couldn't see a way to do it. I tried searching my own npub then starting a chat or adding to a group, but neither worked. I think it'd be great to be able to have this type of capability where I could store private messages/stuff to myself on my own Inbox relay. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo They certainly are!

You can very easily filter them by their content or blacklist their pubkeys. I'm thinking of releasing my strfry blacklist plugin code: it lets you easily add accounts to blacklist, as well as phrases (including regex) to reject from publishing. With these combined you make quick work of the spammers. #relays https://haven.superfriends.online/4b96b823029c96011050d1755b4f90fd536575adf78727d0b0328c2a086f4ab8.gif npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Gems from @npub1jmh…8q5z :catKISS: #nevent1q…g38p npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I'm a big fan of GLM for speeding up my development lifecycle. I often draft up very strict coding guidelines and it saves me a lot of time. I'm not a vibe coder, but I guess it could do that too. It's also great at debugging and troubleshooting.

As more and more time goes by I find the most enduring, honest and trustworthy friendships are those formed with total strangers online.
