David,

I see that the metrics change has been reverted.

If/When the metrics change is implemented, will loadbalanced Tor Relay Nodes need to be uniquely named or will they all be able to use the same nickname?

I'm glad to hear your loadbalanced Snowflake Relay continues to work well.

Thanks, again, for your efforts.

Respectfully,

Gary

You're right. I see a change since 2022-02-27, but in the case of the
snowflake bridge the numbers look wrong, about 8× too high. I posted an
update on the issue. Thanks for noticing.

Yes, it's still working well here.
