eden will start actively blocking gift wrapped events
- they are harmful to the nostr protocol:
- they encourage the consolidation of a lot of different actual kinds under one kind
- they give a false impression of no metadata leaks
- they require clients to unnecessarily decrypt and verify events that they will throw out
- they are impossible to match to paid users without breaking their “privacy” “guarantees”
- relays have a harder time filtering spam
- I do not need more arbitrary blobs on my relay
- I already don’t support writing them due to the pubkey being random
