Here's a better way to do digital personhood. no biometrics. no KYC. just human 2 human verification to get a sybil-resilient #nostr badge and #UBI in local community currency

AFAIU "Note to Self" is encrypted, as snort asks me for permission to encrypt/decrypt. It would be good if there is an indication on what is encrypted (what notes, what conversation)
I went ahead of myself, because my next (bigger) feature request would be to support public channels (multiuser chat, telegram style, with moderation possibilities). But That probably needs to be standardized in the protocol first?

I like it. My wishes from the top of my head:
* Cache/store display names and avatars for followed accounts. Too much delay when loading
* visually indicate if a channel is encrypted (note to self?)

valid point. It helps moving consumers, because they can avoid ads. But it doesn't help move authors.
Still, nostr can not prevent anyone from crossposting publicly available content, so I guess this will be done sooner or later anyway. So I'd rather have it done *right* in the first place

Such a "trusted crossposter" would need to have custody of all shadow account keys and issue certificates/badges for them (or use NIP-26?). There's the obvious risk for impersonations if we go that way. And I don't like trusted entities for something like nostr - if only because even an honest operator can be hacked

How to benefit from Twitter for Nostr adoption?
The network effect makes it hard to replace twitter. So many people we want to follow and be followed by are on twitter. So, how can we make nostr more attractive UNTIL people move over?
A twitter "mirror" could listen to tweets from a list of accounts and create shadow identities on nostr which it uses to cross-post all tweets. This way, people could move to nostr but still follow ppl on twitter - without logging in to twitter. And without the annoying ads.
But how could we authenticate these shadow identites without the initiative or even consent of the original twitter account?
Enter trusted execution environments (TEE):
We could execute the listener inside a TEE and let it create shadow nostr accounts with a name like "POTUS [on twitter]". The keys to these accounts would be managed by the TEE and are not accessible to the operator of the service.
Then, we could use NIP-52 badges to indicate verified TEE-managed accounts (remote attestation is possible)
It should be fairly straightforward to build this including a complete audit trail with the Integritee SDK:
https://integritee.network/
https://docs.integritee.network/4-development/4.4-sdk/4.4.2-trusted-off-chain-worker
caveats:
* not sure what legal implications apply if we cross-post without consent
* we probably should offer opt-out to be fair to twitterers who do not want to be cross-posted to nostr
* it may make sense to use a specialized set of relays for this, so people can choose to see such cross-posts or not

#[1] not sure if that's on your roadmap, but drag & drop images to markdown documents would be massive! Why would we use medium anymore? https://github.com/jacany/nosbin/issues/10

#[0] Some nostriches might post in different languages, so this will require UI switches too which isn't neat. What about making it a relay feature to run language detection (or even learn what languages are probably per pubkey) to enrich unsigned metadata?
