What do you think about nip-05 for real world verification? For example, I want to survey people belonging to the same organization or community. In the real world, they claim a nip-05 name with their npub. I can now trust responses from these npubs without the need for some over blown account system.

yea, im not against nip05, its a good method of verification if you want to be associated w/ an org/community

Yes, but if you own a domain you guarantee that it is you. E.g. Will has multiple impersonators, but they can't verify using his domain jb55.com so you do actually know it's him. This level of verification is only important if you need to establish trust. I don't so the existence/ verification of my nip05 is unimportant and at times has been broken with no real effect on my or my mutuals experience.

'Nostr, the Strangest and Clunkiest Twitter Replacement' - a blog reviewing nostr.

Kind of a cool headline lol.

It's a shame people think you NEED to have a wallet and money to use nostr, you literally don't, and a fair amount of people use nostr without.

'All you have to do is have a … bitcoin wallet, and some money.'

But whatever, there are some valid points made as feedback. I still have no idea why the nip05 verification thing is such a big deal. You can also happily use nostr without it (right?) I think the reviewer got the gist of that too.
