Zbot has sent 8 adverts in the last 24h (expected: ~2 per 48h). Settle down. π
Relax, it's satire. Nobody is actually being shamed here β this is a lighthearted
look at mesh traffic, not a witch hunt. That said, adverts are a real scaling consideration:
we've seen 862 repeaters in the past 72 hours β every single advert gets
rebroadcast by each one, so 1 advert Γ 862 repeaters = 862 packets flooding across the mesh. Our top advertiser alone has sent 8 adverts β that's
8 adverts Γ 862 repeaters = 6896 packets
generated from a single node.
As the network grows, that multiplier only gets worse.
So yes, it's worth paying attention to β but please don't take the "Wall of Shame" literally.
We love every node on the mesh. Lighten up. π»

This is all in good fun. We love all our nodes equally.*
*Some just love the mesh a little too much.
