@brugeman npub.pro is awesome, but currently it totally hides the nostr layer, what do you think about exposing somehow the author npub and the articles naddr?
It could be also nice to have a link in the footer that explain, without leaving the website, how it works (there is Nostr, there are Nostr long format events, the site collected and show them nicely).
i actually like npub.prob BECAUSE it hides the nostr layer. people don't really need to know that they're using nostr. for example, web pages don't have links to explain http or links to w3c.org. i do realize that many websites did have this in the early days, so maybe minimal links in the footer to nostr.com could be beneficial or something along those lines?
A footer link to the nip repo would be cool
The problem here is different: I find a nice Nostr blog and I can't follow the author at the moment because it is not possible to get the npub. I don't find that he also posts interesting short notes every day. It's not a matter of explaining the protocol (which wouldn't be a bad thing, if posted discreetly, as suggested), but of embracing interoperability and discoverability.
I agree, we need more nostr there, at least optionally. There will be html meta tags with npub/noteid/naddr and full event in schema.org json somehow. I think "Open with" buttons under posts/authors would be nice too. And the "what is nostr" explainer sounds nice!
