how does actually #Nostr / #plebstr solves moderation of disinformation, racism, violance etc. content?

There is a lot and Nostr is just starting now. We will see how all of this evolves. But the main info is explained here in readme: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nostr

I see Nostr takes care a lot about censorship resistance as an issue in Twitter. Nevertheless, for risks of troll farms, I do not see there much. Hopefully, the protocol will find an elegant solution against them.

There a multiple strategies against trolls/scams: you can make your client only display posts from people you follow, you can use paid relays, relays could require proof-of-work, you can setup filters and blocklists in the client, etc.

Thx for the inputs. Still it seems to me like something the troll farms can easily breach or is not wanted by users (display only followed), blocklist is nice, but troll farms generates many new users automatically.

Yeah, that will be never ending fight, but since lightning ⚡ is so nicely integrated with Nostr it makes it really easy to require small amounts of sats as a prevention of the abuse.

i heard Twitter was doing well in this fight, until the moderation team wasnt replaced by algorithms by Musk´s takeover.

I do not think the micropayment requiremnt is a solution.

the troll farms can generate multiple accounts, connect each of them with even the same lightning wallet and send out the validation micropayment.

Fwiw, I was using twitter before Musk and after Musk and the spam and scams have improved (at least for me) over the last 6 months.

interesting. I heard the opposite. my personal experience is very low in it. Then it should be applicable and effective here as well.

Another thing is a recognition of a fake identity accounts. No authority can validate you are truly e.g. Elon #Musk, or am I wrong?
