it should already show kind 0 names, the reason it probably does not show any is that the "explore feed" subscription is currently limited to 500 events a7a2acfc0c/src/main.js (L55) and nostrweb doesnt (yet) fetch user info from pubkeys it sees.
for textNotes I would show username, and not nip-02 contact or "petnames".
It seems to be more useful on profile (pubkey) deeplink #8 to show as following
A client may rely on the kind-3 event to display a list of followed people by profiles one is browsing; make lists of suggestions on who to follow based on the contact lists of other people one might be following or browsing; or show the data in other contexts.
also
If one believes a relay will store their events for sufficient time, they can use this kind-3 event to backup their following list and recover on a different device.

true! it already shows names, those which it caught in the first 500.

👍 but what if i don't have a username for a pubkey, i.e. i don't follow them. don't you find it useful to see `david.erin` instead of `a8bb3d884d5d90b413d9891fe4c4e46d`? it's from the example at the bottom here: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/02.md#petname-scheme
true, if nostrweb doesn't have a name for a pubkey yet, but has a petname it should prob display it… but which name to show if it knows multiple petnames for the same pubkey?
In the future I'd imagine nostrweb should fetch kind 0 for all pubkeys it sees, or fallback to some petname it knows but not sure yet.

right. unsure. nostr telegram channel says it's up to the client to pick, but i don't like it.
so, i guess we'll keep this issue about kind 0 events only for now? i.e. try to get as many as possible, without spinning a heatsink fan :)

So, turns out it displays names, but nostrweb forgets it :) and doesn't update old fallbacknames (yet)
