On the Subject of Feed Identities; I propose the following:

1. Generate a Private/Public ED25519 key pair
2. Use this key pair to sign your Twtxt feed
3. Use it as your feed's identity in place of # url = as # key = ...

For example:

e
$ ssh-keygen -f prologic@twtxt.net
$ ssh-keygen -Y sign -n prologic@twtxt.net -f prologic@twtxt.net twtxt.txt


And your feed would looke like:


# nick        = prologic
# key         = SHA256:23OiSfuPC4zT0lVh1Y+XKh+KjP59brhZfxFHIYZkbZs
# sig         = twtxt.txt.sig
# prev        = j6bmlgq twtxt.txt/1
# avatar      = https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/avatar#gdoicerjkh3nynyxnxawwwkearr4qllkoevtwb3req4hojx5z43q
# description = "Problems are Solved by Method" πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‘¨β€πŸ’»πŸ‘¨β€πŸ¦―πŸΉβ™” πŸ“βš― πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘§πŸ›₯ -- James Mills (operator of twtxt.net / creator of Yarn.social 🧢)

Twt Hash extension would change of course to use a feed's ED25519 public key fingerprint.
