Set up my own NIP05 identifier, hosted on my own domain. Now my nostr account checkmark verification is controlled solely by me. 👍🏼

How to do it:

This is nice. But why do I need to have my own identifier when I have numerous providers that could help me with that?

Same reason you’d want to run your own Bitcoin node, control your own Bitcoin private keys, etc. - to be more self-sovereign and less dependent on 3rd parties.
