Reply guy is now creating new npubs and impostering the original author of the respective note.

Filter for avatar icon or checksum or username regexp.
If you are a relay operator and using nginx filtering out empty http_user_agent would helped for the time being. b4 thos guy changed it put this in nginx's server scope ``` server { server_name my.cool.site; if ($http_user_agent = "" ) { return 403; } } ```

Ivan’s suggestion of muting WSS worked for me
okay so im not the only one i was having a problem with primal on android and assumed it was linked with them somehow lol🫣
Here is a simple suggestion for bot immunity - may be it is an opt in at user level .. - Only those who I follow shoud be able to comment or react on my notes .. In a way "follow someone" is a proactive permission to "someone" to react to my notes - reply , quote , fork or like etc .. Rest everyone can read .. - If someone want to react to my messages - they should first follow me .. and then I can choose to follow back .. - If you dont "opt in " then every time someone follows you , you auto follow back .. I know it is probably a protocol level change and it will reduce the traction (particularly for new users) .. but in the long it will help #nostr ..
Thats why I said it is a protocol level change .. I am sure relays will find easyier way to filter the spam attacks .. but changing the meaning of "follow" would go a long way ..
Btw - that is the difference between "notes" and "posts" .. notes mean default position is no one (except me) may react to what I noted ... posts are open submissions for comments .. or likes or whatev.. We should be true to the name :-) ..

Not sure what the influence was but I know in Japan it’s called note(s) and a boost/repost is called renote
When I see notifications in #Amethyst , the global view is riddled with "reply guy" ... but " All Follows" view is good ... Maybe you wanna implement same logic in feed too .. no display (and reportinng ) from anyone who I dont follow ..
For example - add one more option for the "feed" ... "Only Follow" --- All follows means everyone , including bots -- "Only Follows" means - as the name suggest - only from the ones I follow .. image
Funnily enough, I put that string into my muted list on Amethyst last week and I only see those notifications on Amethyst, never on Primal, which is my main app (mobile and desktop)
What method are you using for switching relays? I noticed that I can remove the ones marked in red via Primal on Android, but not on desktop browser.
