I’m biased because I work at Tlon, but I think using low, but non-zero cost IDs for urbit auth is a really good way to do it and makes handling spam easy. For what it’s worth, I joined Tlon because of conviction in what is being built (not the other way around). So it’s not “gated” in the sense of excluding people - it’s more about the minimum cost required to eliminate spam. It solves the issue of ID at the OS level and works well for building networked apps on top of it.
