I admit i can't level or pace of your knowledge regarding these things,and most of the times i am lost of words to say things i want to say or how i must respond..but from what i understand from what you just said that is that my nostr pubkeys are related to or most of my social media accounts?
Discussion
It isn’t so much that the pubkey is linked to a social media account, but instead the pubkey key is linked to a user-friendly name-somewhat related to the format of a name@domain. Here the name is the user friendly aspect and the domain is what verified the link between the user friendly name and the pubkey. There is a nostr NIP compliant file at the domain containing the link between the user friendly name and the pubkey. Before sites will include your name pubkey combo on their domain, they want some verification who controls the pubkey. This is often done by posting your pub key on Twitter, presumably doing so shows you control both. If you do the name/pubkey link on you own site-one can see who controls that site. I think this is an accurate description. Definitely interested in someone has a better characterization.
Anyone can run a 5$ domain and attest millions of pubs to names, why would and should they care about verifying anything?
Yes. I think that means there will someday be a quality to the verification. That is name@goodQualityVerification.com will be more meaningful and desirable than name@noRealVerification.com. Kind of like a Good Housekeeping seal.
Yeah, but that's why i 😎for my usecase of social always want to prefer one from wedontcareaboutIDandchargenothing.com.
If ppl get used to not want to see anon posts, that would be a sad outcome. Imho
Yes. With nostr it seems the default is annon and if you want to doxx yourself you can. Annon is essential. Being verified has a legitimate use case.
Thank you for making it more difficult and confusing...This is not helping.How do you expect you can beating Twitter with such explanations?
