I think it would be cool to encode your key as like a qr code so that folks can scan it.
Kinda loses the aesthetic of the classic gpg armor though
Yeah i thought about that! I have been playing with base64 encoding tho!
An email address might be good too unless part of the key
Could also be a short URL instead, e.g. https://lemmy.ml/post/31547467 or ideally something with keywords rather than UUID, even though here 8 digits isn't too bad.
There’s a GitHub project for that: https://gist.github.com/joostrijneveld/59ab61faa21910c8434c
