I believe I have an idea on how to make onboarding much easier.

Needs lots of work, but basically it’s about making NIP-05 actual emails.

What’s NIP - 05

This thing that identifies your account and looks like an email but isn’t.

This is a NIP-05: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/05.md

Cool. 😎 I’ve had so many different names etc … 🫂💜

Yep yep! https://nostrplebs.com is the first and oldest OG Nostr service.

Explain how your email offer works?

Email goes to your DMs via your Nostr address. So email sent to derekross@nostrplebs.com come to my DMs.

What about attatchments or files?

They're not supported 😩 That would be a nice enhancement though. What if attachments were uploaded to a blossom server 😮 But then you wouldn't own them... Hrm. A lot to think about.

A Nostr "email" client would be awesome.

Magic 🪄

Really because I hate email and would love to never log in with an email account again.

Heard. Hugs 🫂

Notice: you must explicitly enable this

Yes. Thanks for mentioning that. Love you Semi.

Yes. But the UX I’m thinking about is completely reversed.

On nostrplebs you are first an npub, then you go and sign up for a NIP-05.

What if you sign up for an email service and full fledged mailbox, that also just so happened to be nostr compatible.
