Nostr Web Client

One downside is if my nsec is compromised I'm totally fucked. If you had different npubs at least you have separation to keep some accounts under your control.

I'll just use Mosha for proof of Ryan though 🐶👍

Jay changed his nsec/npub once. It seems like it wasn’t a problem. People will recognize you

It would get rid of a lot of zombie followers too 🤔

Yeah it wasn't bad. I had some notes saying I switched, it was in my bio, and I had back links in the new profile. And then I was just interacting as myself everywhere I already was before, and people got it.

The more genuine you are, the harder it is for someone to forge your identity. But the fact that I linked to both npubs from each other helped a lot for my credibility. I think only a couple people DMd me about it.

I remember actually.

Yeah I was Jay [NEW NPUB] for a while 😂

as a nym, isn't our reputation on nostr related to our signing key?

Computational reputation != human reputation

And if you can verify that two npubs are controlled by the same npub, you can merge their reputations.

That's what I want to do for my new and old ones.

NIP it at a protocol level

If you lose your keys and make a new set of keys, as long as you’re honest and weren’t pretending to be someone else, people will recognize you. Jay and SatsMcD are examples of this

that's true. personality over time is hard to match

It’s easier to be genuine than to play games. The ones that try (to play games) are easily found out.
