Make it an @ sign and truncate the name!

This makes more sense tbh. It makes more sense to connect it to what it really is, rather than a structure analogous to something in trad SM

I wish I could find it, some designer 4 months ago made a really great graphic explanation of how this would work.

it’s not ideal tho, iOS and many other digital environments see a @ sign in the middle of words and assume email address, which is a known complaint about mastodon so it’s been avoided here, some nip 05 providers even offer email forwarding 😅

maybe we need to take a hint from bluesky and change to a period so you would be @bob.nostrplebs.com instead of @carol@nostrplebs.com I’m not sure the double @ sign here is technically doing anything

Double @ is confusing for sure.

Maybe something like @Name::site.com
