😂 The whole thing is retarded, they said they thought I was performing a DDos attack or something, I just use the VPN on my phone sometimes, my entire proton account was locked out and I wasn't able to access Anything.

Nostr with new Amethyst is retarded, I am sorry but I still think it’s the case. Amethyst tries to open hundreds of WS connections, and pull same data over and over. Any system for detection of DoS will flag it as such. Don’t blame the Proton, blame the inappropriate use of network resources by the software
It did happen right after the update yes, I was thinking the same thing.
I do blame proton though, if you don't want me using the VPN, disable that, but don't ban my emails and proton pass and stuff.
Use a proxy relay, that will disable the outbox mode. A WoT relay configured for your user, filter.nostr.wine or aggr.nostr.land are good choices.
I haven't run into any issues with mullvad or iVPN since the update. Both take lightning for payment too.
Will need to try that. Thanks
Is this true though? I've not noticed increased data usage, and though there are far more relays, most of them transmit little data. Here are the top 25 data using relays, after a day of use. After this it quickly tails off into single MB and kB.
In my experience uncompressed media is a far greater issue for bandwidth issue, with 2MB avatars and 400MB 3 minute videos 😂 When I made Flappy Nostrich the biggest issue was downscaling avatars to non ridiculous sizes.
