Oddbean new post about login | logout Not sure if I think nostr obsoletes pgp and using multiple self hosted tools to verify is my prefered method. Getting the keys on the phone is an issue because pgp keys get stored in various manners and places. I would like to be able to verify in multiple unique ways if made available. One is none, two is one.
Does a pgp signature give you increased verification over and above what a Nostr signature would?
Perhaps not, however I don't know if even the zap store folks would say it is all the way there yet. I like the idea, but pgp is current standard and having a way to DOUBLE check the zap store would be nice. Once you have the public key, verifying is like a couple taps in couple apps.
when ‘bros’ say ‘bros! this one thing totes obsoletes this other thing, bros!’ i always keep the other thing around because bros are almost never completely right. theyre only sure they’re completely right.
