Display Nostr user profile and/or posts on web (in Fediverse native way)

This might massively increase resource usage, so perhaps it's best as an opt-in feature for those who self-host their own Mostr.

It's currently quite hard to find myself (npub1s6z7hmmx2vud66f3utxd70qem8cwtggx0jgc7gh8pqwz2k8cltuqrdwk4c) in the Fediverse. It would be nice if I can share a link that takes potential followers to a Mastodon(-like) website where they can see a preview of my posts and some basic profile info. Even if they then still can't follow me, at least I'll seem more real :-)

For self-hosting I would imagine filtering only my npub on the Nostr side and reusing my previous identity on the Fediverse side (I ran my own instance before). Without the bloat of running an full instance, this might be something I'd be willing to put up with maintaining.

(It would also come with the benefit of being able to map to a nicer username, and not being collatteral damage if mostr.pub gets mass-defederated. Though it begs the question how boosting would work; remap any other user to mostr.pub / their mostr-generated npub?)
