 Boomer level confused now. 

Accidentally disconnected NWC. Seems like a pain to connect again on mobile but can't use a normal phone LN wallets anymore.

Am I trapped till login credentials for alby? 

Can't just take a QR pic of the alby extension on desktop.

What happen to the other 50 ln wallets I could just pick to zap?

Mutiny also dead on iOS lockdown it seems.

 Wdym re mutiny? I use mutiny with NWC on iOS and it works just fine 
 In Lockdown mode?

 Something you should run if you have an iPhone.

 I’ve thought about enabling this a lot recently. It’s not super clear from Apple’s explanation, though, what the trade offs are (with regard to miscellaneous apps or limited web browsing).

What do you find still works, or doesn’t, that your average person is accustomed to enjoying? 
 Boston - for years, I was told that *sideloading* was difficult and dangerous on my phone. Recently I tried it. It was so simple! EXACTLY the same as  20 years of downloading an app for my Mac or Windows laptop and installing it, sourced directly from the publisher, (having done my own DD, of course).

My point is: if apple make it sound scary,  but you managed to get on Nostr in 2023, you can do it! 
Besides, it's reversible. 
Worst case is less phone use. And that's a good thing! 
😁
 
 All great points! I’m curious what differences in functionality and UX stand out the most. 
 It is a prank from your big brother 
 Lockdown mode sounds like a great improvement vs regular mode! 
Still big tech, but less tracking  
 I’d never heard of this before. Neat 
 can turn off lockdown mode for individual websites 
 @ZEUS to the rescue

Yes.

Yes.

 Try Oak Node on Umbrel. You can view and re-view the NWC QR as many times as you want.

AFAIK Alby shows only once the NWC secret (and QR code), when you create it. 
 Zeus + Alby and then someday very soon Zeus self-custodially with the new embedded node and LSP
