Web of Trust is a much better way to fight impersonation than DNS alias for the majority of identities, imo.

There could be some exceptions, when some DNS domains are publicly known and recognizable, but that's not the general case.

Nice, but don't forget that NIP-05 is not any kind of authentication, it's just a way to set a DNS-based alias.

The actual identity lies in the pubkey, not in the DNS alias.

The owner of a private lot set the price and its minimum/maximum.

Don't like? Don't buy it.

That's the free market. Anything wrong with it?

Regarding some public parking space being free, yeah, I agree with you that it shouldn't be free.

Completely disagree.

Free parking on public space is statist/commie behavior.

In a capitalist society there's no room for free parking. You use a space for your private car, you should pay for that space.

What if I walked away from this npub and just started a new one? I could probably figure out how to clone all the important stuff over.

I doubt my followers (both of you) would mind that much, and I'm no infloonzer, so my clone would likely just be me.

One feature of nostr that has bugged me for a while is the inability to delete notes. I'm used to deleting most of my history on other platforms, quite intentionally. Sure, a relay might eventually remove your note, but another may not - so you have no way to know if your history is out there still, or no.

I value being able to forget. Being able to re-create. I've had to be way more careful to stay mostly anon here than on normie social media. It feels limiting, rather than freeing.

I may be free of being cancelled or shadow banned, but I am very much not free of the real world consequences of anything I say, at any point in the future, whenever my past may be examined against criteria I wouldn't be able to even imagine in the present.

What if, in 5 years, my wife learns how to use nostr and looks back at this npub's history and decides it was somehow disrespectful to her?

What if it wasn't my wife, but my government? Or the government of the nation I am trying to enter? Or a police or legal action?

Winding myself up a bit. Not sure how this plays out. I'll put it like this - If this npub stops posting, it likely won't be because I am gone. I'll still be around, just respawned under a new clean npub.

My social graph doesn't feel that built up anyway. Does it serve me? Or do I serve it?

In nostr your are able to forget, you can ask others to forget but you can't force others to forget.

More like 'Bitaxish on bull'.
