Yes, this is a serious problem. There are a lot of posts from Mastodon/Fediverse users in the search results, but these users will not have any interaction with Nostr. I'm guessing they won't be able to receive Nostr's comments, retweets, and all of their interactions. There are tons of zombie accounts and content from Mastodon/Fediverse here, which is hugely damaging to #Nostr

Do you have any good ideas #[0]

Don’t use those bridges in search results?

Issue arise when instances becomes un Federated or just deleted?

Search relays like nostr.band can solve this problem well. As long as the search results do not display accounts and post content with URLs containing Mastodon, Fediverse, or mostr.pub in NIP-05, these zombie accounts and content won't appear.

Excluding certain relays?

Shouldn't these accounts basically be considered spam as most have no followers?

I know we use this term as a fix-all, but web of trust will ultimately solve that problem

If you have the mostr bridge relay in your list, you can interact with them.

I don't know which bridge relays there are. Usually large relays like nostr.band will broadcast all events. But I haven't seen any interaction with these bridge accounts yet. πŸ‘€

Relay.mostr.pub

I honestly dont know how it works, but I do know it does.

I would assume you see them cuz the normal relays do bounce em around once they are here. But for a user to interact back and forth, the user needs the mostr relay in the list.

Thaks for sharing πŸ€™
