Hi there,
not a real problem but I find it strange and in any case worrisome as in the end this adds to the DB without any direct request.

I just followed a profile that has like over a decade of existence in the fediVerse with tons of posts. I actually searched and researched for some of them and like just by the way a few more posts of that profile popped up in my network stream.
It doesn't look like there is any kind of pattern to it at all.
(except that they all end with "4860008dbc6c"?)

randomly "imported" posts

I did search for some D* posts from this "brand new server" to import reshare/save them:

posts searched
https://pod.geraspora.de/posts/14245146
https://pod.geraspora.de/posts/0ac890724556bf5a713e18e506721528
https://diaspora-fr.org/posts/50b2e8882bd91579

Also it looks like these posts have in common that bitpickup@framasphere.org, a D* server and there for profile that doesn't exist anymore reshared them, unlikely that this has something to do with it.

@utopiArte what date/time do these post show?
Friendica shows when a post was created and if it was received recently it will also show when it was received.

Posts can end up on your server when these are:
- created originally
- a contact of yours or any user on your server interacts with it.
- you search for it

Rarely also when new contact is added.

Share some screenshot of a post if you like, you can remove name and post body, just the date time part is needed to understand.

I guess this is the point here.

Right now I'm in a working rush as this server juste started as it should, have a back log on the merge report and actually am anxious to do what I actually wanted to with this domain, so right now I can't.

If I stumble over it again I will come back to this, other wise when I have some time I'll try to recreate the "bug".
