okay look
#mastodev, there needs to be a brainstorm on something:
a lot of users are concerned about cross-instance users using their username and impersonating them

what would be a good and userfriendly way to fix this?
gnu social doesn't even have a fix for this yet, it seems, so...

@b Maybe something with Keybase? Works with verifying identities on the birdsite. Would require compatibility on Keybase's end though.
