What about the duplicate content problem? #156

Closed georgkaser closed 1 year ago

georgkaser commented 1 year ago

Just a naive question of a web developer: Does anybody know, how the problem of "duplicate content" is solved here on nostr? I mean, when I write my blog entry on my blog and I release the same content on nostr, I will get problems with search engines. Shouldn't it be possible to set a canonical url on nostr?

I don't see how you can get problems with search engines. Content published through Nostr has a very specific transport mechanism that can't be indexed by search engines -- unless you wrap it with an HTTP server of some kind.

Ah, okay, I didn't know that nostr pages won't be indexed. Thank you for your answer.
