   Since subposting about conviction is the hot topic...
   "Hmm, this thing is broken in a way that is completely beyond my control, deliberately, by people who hate me and my kin and want to see us all dead. Yes, good! Definitely better than the alternative, that has a solid foundation, that I could fix if I were to put in a week learning how."

     As for dns solutions I think that a crypto based one could work for this application.
     
     In the end, all these platforms like discord, Twitter, YouTube, etc, completely own your online identity and this is a way they use to make you confirm. Having your domain, and following that running services on it, is what frees you from that situation.
     
     A simple domain that points to Zoho mail is a great deal better than G*ail and outlook. Most importantly because the switch to self hosted, or friend hosted, infrastructure is a lot easier afterwards.

     @laurel manyverse, nostr
     I'm also interested in things like opennic but as far as I can tell that thing's dead.
     Granted there's nothing to stop me creating my own tier 1 resolver and loading it up with whatever I want.

     Eventually they will. It comes down to the necessity of having a domain you rent yourself to guarantee your online identity. Else, everything about your online presence can be removed either by malice, subversion or circumstance.
