It would be pretty cool if you could call an npub instead of a phone number.
Discussion
I'm sick of phone numbers and the KYC that comes with them. We should be able to generate something else as needed. Similar to how SimpleLogin does with email addresses. But maybe tie it all together with a public/private key pair instead of a single email/phone number.
It's actually kind of retarded to tie so many critical things to a single phone number that can be pwned so easily.
I also shouldn't need to tie my identity to a mobile device just to connect to the internet/web. That's ridiculous. I should be able to hop around and pay sats to whichever network I'm using without any other bullshit. Similar to how WiFi access works.
What would you name it?
Yet another phone call app? ๐คฃ

I was thinking that you could add a "Contacts" list and list-editor to Hivetalk, as the minimum viable method. For impromptu video calls and audio calls. Like predefined rooms. Could even group the contacts, like Teams or WhatsApp.
Put up a zap goal and see who's willing to pony up, for that. Call it "Fone a fren". ๐
This room is Matt and I.
This room is Matt and I and Dr. Karrot.
This room is GitCitadel Team.
This room is me and my husband...
yup - we allow up to 3 rooms and 5 calendar events on this current iteration. So you can have a set time and send your friend a link for a time, event details and room.
The spec for these rooms and the associated scheduled meetings were merged into NIP-53 last week.

Interesting โ๏ธ
..... the feature you're asking for - its already available on https://honey.hivetalk.org (the beta) - not vanilla which is what the top level defaults to ๐
you can create lists from your follows and restrict rooms access to only npubs in a list. There is an active geyser fund here: https://geyser.fund/project/hivehoney

Not sure if they still do.
