 Dev is completely incompetent.  This was an accident waiting to happen.   
 Melvin, you obviously don't know anything about hodlbod or his codebase or his body of work. It's horrible what happened but saying shit like this is extremely mean, ignorant and reckless and only serves to isolate you from the nostr dev community.  If you want to have any friends, don't shit on people when they make a mistake. It doesn't make you look smart. I personally like what you do Melvin and I think you have great ideas to contribute to nostr but the way you treat other people is fucking awful, like how you bully fiatjaf and others. Hodlbod is an awesome guy and he's doing the right thing here. Wish I could say the same about you. 
 NO.  I told them not to send data to 3rd parties.  They laughed.  They mocked it.   
 I fully expect that I’ll have to burn this account. I’ve copy+pasted it in to too many clients at this point. 

The real mistake is in making people think that nostr is currently “secure”. It’s still very beta and best practices are not yet in place. So don’t bet the farm on it! 
 LIVE & learn while not carrying a load of shit fren, it just slows U down.    resentment is a waste of mind!   onward!     not financial or personal preference relay/dyor 
 3rd ^ party! 
 Mr Staab is an important part of the Nostr community, and Coracle has paved the way for important stuff like groups, custom feeds, and... Remote Signing.​ I think this is more indicative of the pitfalls with Nostr itself than Jon's coding abilities, especially with the big red text saying "This is insecure" on Coracle's private key option. 
 You should not send user data to 3rd parties 
 You're right.
