What a DID nostr method could like like, should anyone want such a thing. I'm writing this out so that a worse version isnt registered later.
Beware that DID canonicalization has centralized dependencies on w3.org and w3id.org though

Cool. I have been hacking the did:web method
https://asats.io/docs#/public/get_did_doc__well_known_did_json_get
Do you have an example?
It’s little more than a hack, but it resolves.
Someone pointed me to this: https://github.com/TBD54566975/did-nostr
It would have been nice to keep JSON-LD and W3C bloat out of Nostr, but it seems inevitable
Not really no. We can cherry pick the best parts.
JSON-LD isnt that special. It just adds hyperlinks to JSON
The main bloat is that it cant handle regular JSON, so loses backward compatibility. This can be fixed by prefixing urn:json to unregistered terms, tho
