been busy making this whole automatic access control work as perfectly as possible for #realy
v1.2.24 now fully implements this so that any time the owners change their follow list, or any of those who they follow change *their* follow list, it schedules an access control regeneration that activates as soon as the updated follow list has been saved
this ensures that when you stop following some spammer who was DMing you, they are immediately not able to any further push events to your inbox on the relay
and whenever you add someone to your follow list, as an authorised user of the relay, you can immediately enable your follow to DM you in your realy inbox
had to create a secondary list for the update process so it only monitors changes on follow lists of owner and follows, and then the secondary list contains all of the follows of the follows who are then allowed to publish to the relay
as an example of what sort of numbers this entails, my follow list of 98 has a further 10,000 npubs automatically allowed to auth to wss://mleku.realy.lol and publish events to it
the point of this is of course that if you are a hypothetical relay provider, be it volunteer, internal, or for pay, but in the case of paid, or group funded service (which can be volunteer, basically like membership dues) then you want to allow everything the user might want to see be uploaded to the relay
also anyone the user follows i assert that there is a logical semantics in following that you allow them to DM you, and with this change now if you allow them to DM to your inbox on a relay, and they spam you, their are no longer on the relay access list if you unfollow them
been a bit of a long day at making fixes to this, the implementation wasn't anything like sufficient this morning, i've made like 6 new commits today on it
