This relay has been running for more than two weeks now, and despite being a free and public relay with no NIP-42 auth, or nothing stopping anyone from attempting to publish. The feed is clean of spam/scam bots or p*rn. Looking at its metrics, it has already rate limited more than 40k events or attempts of publishing, so this proof of concept is working pretty nicely. I just need to tweak the bucket tiers a bit since I've been rate limited myself as well xD Even though my bucket allows me to publish more than 400 events a day, it's incredible how spammy some clients are with publishing events for everything all the time. Anyways, great success! 🚀 #wot #relay
