You’re not challenged nearly as often as you should be. It’s made you harsh to viewpoints that aren’t your own or in those of your circle. Missed opportunities to take it in and grow from it.

Hey now… @Alex Gleason that’s a pretty intense take. We’re building a system which is going to face much more direct and underhanded attacks. Having friendly red teaming of Nostr right now, is good. Sure, it was frustrating, and it could have been better if it was in the open, but future adversaries aren’t going to do that.

Bro calm down. He did it for the betterment of the protocol. Imagine when state actors try to compromise nostr and make it unusable…

So pleased @rabble for this sensible take. I can see why some may not see the positive side of this esp if it is their work or their "baby" is at stake. But greatness requires moving past your pride and ego. 🫂 Whilst it is frustrating, sometimes tough love is required to accelerate the discussion esp if it is common knowledge within the tech community that it is a problem. I'd say, I'd prefer to have a friendly red team than a malicious one. Yes, it is frustrating to the non-tech but we are also early adopters so we have high tolerance for this eventuality. In the end, we are hoping to see a solution that will not compromise the foundation of nostr - censorship resistant. ❤️👌

Really not doing yourself any favours here Alex. Think of this as someone disclosing a critical security vuln in 99% of the apps in an app store. Some apps won't patch until forced to do so. Pure white hat reporting just wouldn't work. And like others have said, this spam could be much worse if truly malicious.
