I think the premise of the article is faulty; there is no “default anonymity” in nostr; there’s a name field and you enter there whatever you want, the alternative being what you explicitly denounce in the article, so I know that’s not what you’re proposing, KYC.

It’s just a matter of early adopters who lean more towards being more privacy conscious and opting to use different names than what appears in their passport. 

 That’s not the point, though. Privacy is important, but we’re talking about *public* posts. Ideas. 

 But isn’t the point that you’re making that nostr is “anonymous by default”?
