It would be nice if nostr could do that like PGP
But PGP failed for over a decade precisely because this created a difficult user experience
And after that it got killed by a massive attack
Nostr at least has a chance of working, because it is simple
I guess it's just a problem for influencers who want to build an audience. I couldn't care less if I lose my keys. And I'm not going to lose them. Still, my gut tells me it's a fixable problem, but how to do it is above my paygrade.

PGP got killed ? By a massive attack?
Please elaborate ? PGP is used by things like Debian and RedHat millions of times a day .
