That just proves the event was placed before a time. You can still delete it. A lot of automated services are doing that for the good and bad.
Remember, once you send a signed event, anyone can store it forever. They don't need OTS to do so.

Steps to have your own personal relay as a double outbox/inbox relay:
Go to https://relay.tools
Click Start a Relay
Select the standard plan
Log in with a NIP-07 extension
Pick your subdomain name for it
Hit Deploy.
After paying, the screen will redirect you to the relay settings.
Go to Access Control Mode and choose the current setting to "Block By Default and Then allow What I want".
Then on Access Control Lists / Allow Tags
Activate: Allow Events Tagged to PubKeys
Then on Allowed PubKeys, add your key
Now all you need to do is to add this new relay to your Public Outbox AND Public Inbox relays on Amethyst.

Hey @nprofile…z8wf, is Primal showing a preview without empty new lines but creating events with those empty new lines?
I have seen so many posts with lots of empty new lines that I have to believe users are not seeing those new empty lines before posting and, if Primal automatically removes them on rendering, maybe they don't even see after posting. But everybody else does see them.
Maybe remove the new lines before posting if that is what the user is seeing on preview/WYSIWYG editor?

We will never know. It depends on which relays. A lot of the traffic is not on the main ones so most people don't even see users in other locations or languages.

Signers should rarely receive updates. The smallest the signer, the easier to audit and make sure there are no leaks.
Larger apps not only change all the time, but they also update their dependencies all the time, which makes it really hard to know if the nsec is leaking or not.
Any dependency can inject code to steal the nsec from users.

Search means looking for users when you @ somebody (local db of profiles FTS indexed) + searching for something you have seen (FTS of content events) + searching for both in a relay with NIP-50.
In practice, the API call can be replaced by a relay, which we already do. But it is too slow or inconsistent over time (relay gets busy)

Yes, I am going back and forth on the idea of caching vs full db. Ideally the json events should stay local so make sure search of the past seen things works, but it is probably too big to keep on phones (10GB for my account) and it is definitely not fast. Every time it hits the disk, it slows down to a crawl.
Ideally, I'd like to keep the db with under 75MB of memory so that I can have 400MB for the rest of the app. But the indexes alone won't fit in 75MB of ram...

2025-12-31 13:34:58 UTC

Nostr Database strategies:
1. Build indexes for every possible combination of filters: It's fast, but needs a ton (GBs) of memory and 10x your database size in disk. Works great for servers.
2. Don't index all tags: Some filters just won't work and it won't find stuff, but it is fast and memory/disk efficient. Works great for small apps that have known filter needs.
3. Delete events as soon as the app doesn't need them anymore: It's fast and memory/disk efficient, but search sucks and figuring out what can be deleted is a major hassle.
Did I miss anything?

Well, the "ads" are coming from your follow's relays. If you don't want that, stop following them. They are the ones allowing the attack by choosing relays that don't protect against it.
Amethyst doesn't randomly download things from each relay. For each follow's relay, it filter to only download content relative to that follow from that relay. So, strictly speaking, your follows want you to see that ad.

2025-12-25 15:54:38 UTC

- reply

Def not. The other approach is so flawed. Users would miss their follows posts all the time.
You can still use proxy relays, which will disable part of the outbox model for feeds. Just make sure your proxy relays actually have everything you need to see. Otherwise, you might miss posts or worse, miss replies to a post and only see half of the discussion

Two weeks of hardcore performance work on Quartz, but now we can import 3GB containing 2.1 million contact list events in 9.4 minutes, *single-threaded* on a Pixel 9, using just a cool, calm, and collected 15MB (yes, MB) of RAM.
That's up to 10,000 events per second per CPU for lighter follow lists and 3,000 events per second on heavier ones.
By import, I mean receive, unzip, parse, string intern, verify, save, and index (SQLite) with individual transactions on write-ahead logging to guarantee DB consistency and match real use cases.
JSON parsing w/ string interning is now pretty much capped by IO and interning at 120,000 events per second per CPU or ~50MB/s per CPU.
JSON Parsing + interning + verifying runs at ~20,000 events per second per CPU or ~30MB/s per CPU.
None of these use SIMD instructions, which are still poorly supported on mobile CPUs.

On the client, you can only delete your own things for now. But on your inbox relay, you can do whatever you want. That's why it is so important to talk to them.
