Amethyst/nostr needs to have a way to show a QR code to have people add each other in person.

I'm at a conference, and someone wanted to follow me on nostr and couldn't find me with search. I should have been able to press a button and have them scan a QR code with my npub.

Also, I'll point out that Signal should do this too!

Damus does.

need more NIPs for UX features. probably a separate track entirely

Damus has this. It would be nice if it was standardized across clients. I’m testing out SimpleX as a Signal replacement. It uses QR codes to connect.

SimpleX is great for anon DMs

You mean this?

Ah thanks! Well it needs to be more visible then. I and one other person spent 5 minutes trying to find that and couldn't.

Thanks for the generous zap

It was a very useful comment!

zap #[7] instead , he built it!

It's like easter eggs button from Vitor šŸ˜„

This is where nip05 identifiers help too.

Iris.to client has this feature.

Iris has it too. You can use your phone's browser to access it.

Switch to a Nostr client that has that feature. Many clients already do.

Honestly it needs to replace the stupid 'share nsec key' button on the profile view

ah.... don't share your nsec!!

Use KiwiBrowser + #[2] + #[3]

Now that Signal no longer supports SMS, there's no reason to be forced to use a valid phone number.
