If you can’t verify then don’t say shit I guess
The end result will be nostr getting a reputation for fake and scam accounts
Doesn’t X have the same problem at scale? The only thing I know to do is expose the scammers when we find out. Going on X would make me want to slit my own throat; it is why I choose #nostr
That does not matter
We are verifying that their Nostr identity is linked to a known good identity (their twitter handle with a lot of followers)
Oh, that is fantastic. Thank you.
Actually if you hate manually going to their profile on Twitter to verify, there is a spec to link profiles on different platforms to Nostr and even PGP keys
