Do I care about eth: no
Do I support eth nostr client: yes
Do I care if eth addy in your profile: no
Should we merge eth addy into NIP repo: no
If an eth maxi just unilaterally merged it into the nip repo without any input or discussion, would you be ok with it? Some eth holders will say yes.
Now what if a bunch of clients all implement eth, and they start running into interoperability issues doing eth zaps, *then* we should define a standard for it in a NIP, with input from users, client devs and relay operators.
Now change eth to pronouns and you'll better understand my position and why I was against that hasty merge.
Pronouns have been reverted from the NIP repo.
The way to get pronouns on nostr if you want them is to ask your client devs to add them, not yolo merging it into NIPs.
Clients and users are already free to add them if they want which I fully support.
Don't play politics in the repo please
This can be said for hundreds if not thousands of possible fields. Not a single client has done it yet. The point of the NIP repo is to define defacto standards already in the wild, not hypothetical plans.
There are many more people using monero addresses in profile metadata today and yet nobody is just merging that as a standard, even though it actually already is one.
This was clearly a politically driven PR, it wasn't about protocol standards.
And by work I mean coming up with more memes and gifs for nostr:nprofile1qqspcm9j9xtt42lfyx7dghytvgfm9k4sjmuguja9v7x585v45xrg25gpzdmhxue69uhhwmm59e6hg7r09ehkuef0e53axx

Gm,
I too am enjoying face melt mode.
But just don't forget Bitcoin also loves big dumpies from time to time, don't let it affect your mood when it eventually happens
Imagine not following nostr:nprofile1qqspcm9j9xtt42lfyx7dghytvgfm9k4sjmuguja9v7x585v45xrg25gpz4mhxue69uhhwmm59eaxzcm0daejucm0d5hs7pk2s3 while all these shorts are losing everything
People always had this freedom which you of course know, you can put anything in your metadata and sign it. Not having every possible names field in the repo isn't blocking anyone's freedom.
Guys, turns out Nigerian princes are real https://i.nostr.build/NLIpcVLyqoSWhHLY.jpg
