Hey @masinette 👋

Thanks for raising this.

The inconsistent search results for the "user.email is not """ search is indeed odd. I've been able to repro this on my laptop. I'm not entirely sure if our 'is not' syntax can work in this way when the value is empty 😅

What is the use-case/rationale for someone searching for this?

Filtering out users who are not signed in

I also tried user.ip is "" and user.ip is None, since the list displays IPs when an email is not available, but both of those queries crashed. After that I ran out of steam looking for ways to get the output I was looking for.

Also, it's not just the is not operator. user.email is "" returns weird results, too. In my project, that returns at least some rows where users clearly have an email.

IP bug relates to https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/pull/69326/files

We're looking into both of these issues, thanks for reporting! @staticshock @masinette
