“This idea of obfuscating keys is dumb. If explaining to an alien our legacy login system and keys, keys are waaaaayy simpler. Also, the whole point is we are arming people with the most powerful tool of liberation, public key crypto.”

Spot on. This idea of obfuscating keys is dumb. If explaining to an alien our legacy login system and keys, keys are waaaaayy simpler. Also, the whole point is we are arming people with the most powerful tool of liberation, public key crypto.—--------------------------

fiatjaf (npub180c…h6w6) announces bounty related to creating nostr shields with proper websockets and handling of nprofiles/npubs. See linked note for more information.
1M bounty for whoever gets this merged with proper websockets and handling nprofiles/npubs to fetch the profile name. Fetching follower counts can be done with a `COUNT` to relay.nostr.band (or configurable relay as query parameter), but if you can think of something else better to put in there instead of follower counts that will be great.
