This is not a serious proposal, but maybe it is. I would like a way to verify that nostr users are actually humans. What if there was a way for two users that meet irl to both sign a note and post it that says they met and saw that the other person does actually exist. It would be like an additional layer to the WoT model. Then when you look at a person's profile it would say X people you follow have verified this user as human, and additionally X people you have verified as human verified this user.

It would encourage more irl interactions among users and be a way for new users to gain some credibility instantly of they are onboarded by a friend.

I'm sure all the devs that read this will think it's a great idea and can't wait to implement yet another note type into their clients. Again, not serious about this, but maybe serious.
