Is there a way to filter out all of this buzzbot and zap raffle stuff?

Good Q #asknostr
Amethyst has a spam filter
Use the hashtag #asknostr to bring in the hive mind to answer questions faster!
Depends what you're using, mate
Dont be ross ulbricht ๐
Some apps and websites allow filtering certain words. Depends on your current client.
Depends on your app, Amethyst block filter works really well
Welcome to Nostr
Also helps if you follow more people, use the โmuteโ function (not sure how well it works across clients, for example if I mute in Damus I may still see what I muted in Primal)
You can mute npubs, keywords, threads, and hashtags on iOS Damus.
Some clients will let you block accounts and also posts with certain words.
Amethyst & Nostrmo on Android.
On iOS I think Damus or Nostur will also let you do this. Hopefully an Apple user can confirm.
It's a valuable way to curate your feed ๐ค
What client are you using? It will be client dependent as far as what filters are available to you.
it's not fully ironed out, but a great starting point is apps using nostr:nprofile1qqstq4j6pk2sgaupru6l7ah9nq0dueafq356jllwcy7uzlek9yx7hlspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wshsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvshs4kprv3, a web of trust as a service.
basically, use relays and services which are bullet proof using wot. :rocketship:
If you are using Amethyst, you can filter spam and words.
Which client are you using.
Iโm on Damus, I dont see buzzbot stuff here.
For your feed or messages?
mute, usually a red text in a menu on the bottom right corner or top right corner of posts, to mute the user
If you use Amethyst, you can block them.
use & #follow #hashtags to #find #people to follow & #block
not seeing it on primal or damus
probably also should follow a few more people and curate your feed
Mute those words in Amethyst and you'll never see it again.
This is the way
No there isnt. Nostr has a spam problem and will only get worse as more people join.
One solution is to require profiles to pay 3 Satoshi in order to follow others and be able to interact with that profile. That will be a basic defense against scammers and bots.
Allowing anyone to follow and interact with profiles by just clicking on the follow button enables bots and scammers to easily spam out profiles.
Yes there is. On Amethyst you can mute words or npubs.
A few clients got a mute option, so you can mute specific words
Which nostr client are you using? try jumble.social.

First of all you need an android to fully experience nostr. Or use damus on ios and not primal. On amethyst for android you can block/mute any account or you can mute words.
I don't know, but if you find a way, can we apply it to Katy Perry for present and future cases?
Tell me more about this โzap raffleโ.
iOS Damus lets you mute.

Check out Nostur if you're using iPhone. I haven't seen anything except people mentioning the npub directl
My fav

Prob Thursday or Friday. Just got some pecans today ๐ค๐ผ๐ฅ
I hit the notification icon ๐
Is there one? Haha. Just follow the npub Iโll share updates here. Thinking about also having maybe a group chat on simplex. Care to join?
i have the solution. letโs talk @npub1pzzrdngrnlufqazx3lfj07k0vfuya6ehfy8q5yv2h8c5e8fxgmxqhxdsr8

Global on public relays is a really bad pattern.
Has anyone followed those directions the cartoon transformers movie explained?

Using primal? You could create a saves search excluding words. Not a perfect solution.

Most nostr clients let you mute words/phrases. Try adding buzzbot and zap raffle to your mute list. Some clients also support kind filtering (kind:1 for just notes)
Is there also a way to hide seeing nostr:npub1pzzrdngrnlufqazx3lfj07k0vfuya6ehfy8q5yv2h8c5e8fxgmxqhxdsr8 โs note reposted as every third note down my feed? ๐
Everything free eventually is trashed. Filter is making people zap to follow and/or post. Even trivial amounts would eliminate the vast majority of spam
There will be! nostr:npub1h00dlum44jnxdjeqms0d9s0l0n0lslv84mcw5420qpu277d8y4mqpv0cnf

"goose, make me a nostr client that filters out buzzbot and zap raffles. name it buzzkill."
where are you seeing this stuff?
It is kinda everywhereโฆ.
Iโm getting sick of it as well lol
what do you mean everywhere? what client are you using ?
Damus must be doing a good job of keeping this at bay somehow because I havenโt seen much of it either.
Hmmm here lately Iโm using Nostur, and primalโฆ like a 50/50 split prob tbh
And the past few days it seems like I have seen a lot of buzz bot crap
I usually just scroll past it and ignore
But now that he pointed this issue out. It is kinda frustrating. Like do I really need to mute everyone that is posting notes about buzz bot?
I donโt wanna see anymore buzz bot crap lol lol
Reminds me of the hell thread crap ๐ฉ
But this time itโs not in notifications, itโs in my following feed.
I have seen maybe 1 or 2 and the rest is others complaining about it, similar to the replybot, Nostur doesnโt show that unless you follow people who do that and then the solution is Unfollow. Do you have a specific post I can take a look at? Maybe something slipped past the filter
No itโs pretty much all good now
Yeah I think it was because I was following some people that kept reposting it โฆ I could un follow if it was bothering me that badly ๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐
All I see is buzz bot ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ

Actually there are a lot more bots on nostr protocols than on ๐ . So ๐ is more organic .
Here people need to be extra cautions with interactions cause there are probably a lot of criminals hiding behind their npub identity try to sell you some stuff and if you
Go deeper there also some adult content walking around freely .
So be careful with your interactions cause we never know who behind those Npub key ๐
I suspect itโs mostly an issue on primal trending. Buzzbot was built to game that
You can just mute anybody that is posting trash that you donโt wanna see
Bam ๐ฅ problem solved
Only see what you wanna see โฆ
This is the way
I use Damus on iOS and I have no idea what you are talking about, fwiw. Hello btw
once you filter out all the shitheads it will be just me and a few of my buddies left and you will feel like you're back in prison
Yep can confirm
Embarrassing, and half the devs saying "what?" where promoting it
I do it manually. Sometimes they are duplicate accounts with the exact same latest posts. It makes them easy to recognize.
Just mute ๐คซ dude, mute everything including this rubbish account, bot stupid bombing comments with trash. I dunno why nostr:nprofile1qqs9xtvrphl7p8qnua0gk9zusft33lqjkqqr7cwkr6g8wusu0lle8jcpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkczrdu3h allows this bot-stupid account as their suggestion nostr:nprofile1qqsdv8emcke7k3qqaldwv956tstu40ejg663gdsaayuuujs6pknw7jspzfmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ucpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduysapeq no value acc with 25K followers ๐คฎ

Yes. On primal, mute buzz it and you wonโt see it in our trending feeds anymore ๐
Try NoStrudel where you can fully customize your whole Nostr experience and see behind the curtain of what's all going on when errors arise.

Yes, use the mute button with wild abandonment.
Welcome home! and THANK YOU ๐
Even new nostr joiners found buzzbot too buzzy and distasteful ๐

Use iris.to
Feels like new socials again that feeling of using a new platform
Your nostr experience will very much depend on the relays and clients you're using Ross. If you see these bots, either you're using bad relays or your client sucks. or both.
