nip05 badges are probably a mistake. One of the most common questions I get is “how do I get verified” and “please verify me”. Very rarely will nip05 badges mean anything close to verification. Maybe for rare cases like mine where my domain is the same as my username, but most of the time it just means “some random domain points to my pubkey”.
Thinking I should remove the badge altogether.
you can't remove something that people have paid to have. many NIP were paid 🤷♀️

Not removing nip05, removing the icon to reduce confusion.
Yes, please. It’s for only identification and easy sharing of profiles without pasting around full npubs.
please remove it! or at least change the wording to Nostr address instead of verified/verification.
