#nostr accounts shouldn't be called accounts as they aren't accounts. What's a better word? #asknostr
I like "persona" instead of account.
I have multiple personas, which I might like to express via multiple npubs.
Identity is and always has been prismatic. You're a different person in the office, at home, at church, or at a strip club.
Identity also isn't self-assigned, which is why #WoT needs to take personas into consideration. You might trust your doctor with health advice, but probably not with investment advice. Likewise, your financial advisor might not be the best person to ask for recipes.
You're a different you at a funeral & at a rave party.

I use "npubs" as a noun. If twitter manage to make "tweet" a thing, so can we meme "npubs" into human natural language.
Good point. "What's your npub" is something I've said many times already.
We can't have handles on nostr because of Zooko's triangle.
Best we can do is self-hosted NIP-05 which turns your domain into your handle, which is why the following link leads to my profile: njump.me/dergigi.com
Yes, everyone is. nostr:nevent1qqs89xz0hdzpqjavqqutmvctgz9yuf0svk0tj7376enckygtnpnqh2cpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgq3qdergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsxpqqqqqqzyv5qzm
Works well for "Create your profile" but not so well for "What's your profile?" In any case, I like it & something appropriate will emerge organically in time.

I was just about to say it.. I mean I am Italian, but fuck yeah! nostr persona!
None does 😂 Persona comes from latin anyway..
Gradually, then suddenly.. 😂🤣😅🫂💜
Fair.

Fair. My main point is that, in a permissioned system, the system usually encourages ONE account. We shouldn't necessarily do that on nostr. I'd love e.g. the encouragement of temporary npubs to try out a client, etc.

I also like npub. 🤷♀️ I've got like 8 of them, already, but this is my main one.
I like npub too but it's context dependent. What I want to get rid of is the "Create account" buttons. "Create npub" doesn't work in that case, it's too confusing if you're new. "Create profile" is great, so I guess a profile has an npub, but isn't an npub.
Yeah, I think profile works well there. Also makes NIP-sense because we have profile events and that's what you're literally creating.
...but it doesn't work in the "what's your profile" sense because profiles change. The npub is static, which is why "what's your npub" works.
Address?
