dids suck. they're overly complex and have a privacy model that's totally broken

it depends on people not leaking them

which of course they will and then the privacy is gone

All structured claims and certifications about a public key should be public or you shouldn't structure them

The DID privacy model isn't broken for what we're using it for: nostr is totally public.

nostr needs a simpler json claim/assertion, easily accessible in a browser app, with schnorr sigs, and a extensible set of structured claims/tags and assertions

with dids, anyone you reveal your creds to can leak provable knowledge of your identity.

it makes more sense to make a second identity if you don't want it linked to another one with claims

trusting people won't leak your information is not a security model
