for those who saw my messages about the sysop of #gitcitadel yesterday
the problem, as i saw it, was he doesn't understand that NIP-42 specifies that the client has to put the relay address, eg wss://realy.mleku.dev in the auth message, and when the relay is behind a reverse proxy, the reverse proxy has to tell the relay what address the client reached the reverse proxy through
i already have PTSD about how byzantine nostr protocol is in general, and retarded, and MY reverse proxy correctly works as you can see by simply using the one in the address i just named
i don't appreciate being treated like i don't know my subject matter by someone who thinks they are some kind of fancy fucking ops tech who clearly does not understand the nostr protocol and has never deployed a nostr relay that requires auth
and i especially don't appreciate it when i explained it all in detail, repeatedly, for the last month, and the dude doesn't even click the link to the http API docs, and nearest i can tell is because the dude has a phobia against #golang
he doesn't read the code, he doesn't read my instructions, and he doesn't run any of the NECESSARY tools that i stipulated were necessary, in order to do configurations like dynamically changing the logging in order to see what address the relay is receiving from the reverse proxy and why the auth is being rejected
it's not just "working on my side", it's how nostr fucking auth works, ok?
i refuse to work with this guy any further after he has repeatedly shown that he seems to be lacking respect for the person who builds the software he has been asked to deploy
if gitcitadel want to use my relay, they are on their own, at this point, unless they can persuade this guy to fucking pull his head in and actually follow SIMPLE instructions
