Best practice for preprocessing Nanopore reads

First of all, congratulations on that fantastic tool for its speed.

I am not sure if "fastp" automatically detects adapters used by ONT libraries. And what would be the recommended flags to treat this kind of reads obtained by ONT?

Probably better to use porechop followed by filtlong

I've also started using Guppy's trimming and quality filtering options during basecalling. @tseemann I'd love to hear your opinion on this vs porechop
