damus relay should now be one of the least spammed relays. We aggressively ip ban people who try to write too many notes too fast.
Feel free to add it to your relay list again if youβve had trouble with spam there in the past!

I blocked it and I'm keeping it blocked for now. I'm going to wait and see how the spammer reacts. My trust is broken with the damus company.
u do u
Are any real people affected?
There is no company its just Will
pretty much anyway
Itβs true i had to let go of my last employee months ago and all my contributors are gone. Itβs just me now. Im fine with that though i have an army of agents helping. Less meetings too. Canβt complain.
Yeah it is sad in a way tho
And mind you, remember how next coffee lady got so upset about me having a different horizon? How is she feeling about that now with #minab being her bedrooms fella in?!
uh oh. i better wait a few seconds in between notes π¬
banning will continue until spammer morale is crushed
Iβve set up a local Nostr relay using Haven, which includes the Damus relay (relay.damus.io) to import and publish notes. However, in both cases, Iβm consistently hitting HTTP 503 errors ("Service Unavailable").
Is this happening because of the ban? Has anyone else experienced this? How can I resolve this issue?
The service unavailable thing is weird. still havenβt figured it out yet. Its not banning
I thought it was going to be shut down.
I must've missed something.

He may not have any employees it's still a company because he gave it a name. It's Will's company named Damus. He represents his brand.
Whatever you say
You're just jealous of Will because you don't have a company.
Keep up the fight bro!
I like & Respect Will I am simply pointing out that he is another one man Dev team. there's nothing wrong with that. Him having "a company" is just a title & means nothing.
You're basically saying him trying to build a company means nothing. He made effort into thinking of a cool name and branding his app. He should of just named his app Will according to you.
You're the best ragebaiter I know & the dumbest person on Nostr
You're always insulting everyone. I bet if you started a company you'd name it Todd Smith. So boring.
No, I insult you because you're retarded & are always ragebaiting me. I am nice to most people
Guilty here. I'm about to release a notes synchronizer webapp, - and I see the banned messages since today.
It is not spam, but my older notes being copied onto damus relay. I understand it's tricky to detect such behaviour, and maybe this is not what you intend to run your relay for.
When syncing notes the current code does a back-off when rate limited, but retries and tries to find out the effective limit rate.
Do you want me to remove the "fix" button from damus relay? Or shall I use your configured rate when uploading to damus relay?
