Nostr Web Client

A success point of twitter was its ability to create anon accounts. We can think of identity management as many anon accounts that someone could prove they control "if" they want to.

Correct. The problem of nostr is exactly that there is only one identity, one key. If you move to another key, you have to start from scratch. PMs are resetter, followers need to migrate etc. In the long term, having your life tied to just one identity is dangerous.

But you could always prove you control this other identity by messaging from your original identity.

Hopefully it goes somewhere. These types of discussions are new to nostr but quite old in the identity space. You want to keep things/identities as separate as possible and join them later only if needed.

yes for sure! Definitely keep separate by default.
