Oddbean new post about login | logout Noobie question from me - Fountain connects to Nostr with private key. Is that a wise thing to enter on another app ?
I don't think it is.
Yep seems odd but guess it needs permission to connect all profile which npub can’t do.
Well, yes. I meant that it is not a good idea to plug your nsec directly in to the app.
Yep
It seems figuring out extensions could be useful?
That doesn’t relate to Fountain podcast linking to Nostr nsec though
I wondered the same damn thing when I installed fountain yesterday.
I don’t need to do it, just thought it’s strange to ask for private key. But i could be being daft.
I keep everything separate My nsec has never been anywhere but paper
Yep but check out fountain. It says to connect Nostr with it via nsec. Am i missing something? Cross app connectivity is great idea but is this the best way ?
For me as hardcore nostr user this isnt the way I want my account to be a throw away account at all times not tide to any other app that requires email
It only requires nsec to link profile, no email
But when you first made a fountain account it was with an email
True true
My nostr account isnt even linked to my minibits wallet
