To whom it may concern,
Quite a few nostr clients connect to my relay and then don't submit a subscription request. After 6 seconds I time them out. I think they may be getting confused by the fact that I send them an AUTH right off the bat. Clients should be able to tolerate AUTH messages, and ignore them if they don't care to authenticate.
This happens with at least 3 clients because I've seen 3 different user-agent strings exhibit this behavior:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/123.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
Go-http-client/1.1
and clients that do not submit a user-agent
