A single contact in my #signal list which I have an empty chat with (not communicated in years) keeps sending "chat session refreshed" like no tomorrow. Two updates yesterday, roughly 200+ (yes, two hundred) in the last hour.
I blocked the contact, but am still receiving a plethora of "chat session refreshed"
Does this match any known attack patterns, or does anyone have another explanation?
I am wary of replying in case it's part of some attack pattern.
#retoot and reasonable speculation OK

@RichiH@chaos.social signal had some sort of hiccup, yesterday into today. Emoji reactions to messages were spamming notifications similarly, and message sending/recieving seemed to have been affected.
