 "Have fun losing your nsec" 
 I’ve said this exact thing to at least half a dozen people so far:

“Don’t keep your only backup on the same phone you use to sign your notes!”

Nobody ever listens. 
 “My phone got stolen. How do I recover my Nostr account?”

 ur gonna hate me, but mine is stored on what boomers still think is an actual cloud ☁️ 

if it wasn’t for that I wouldn’t have been able to recover mines, it’s now written down on paper tho, was too scary 
 boomers never store shit in watervapor

 Not gonna lie, Bitwarden is hella useful until they get hacked I guess 😂😂 
 Even if they got hacked, intruders would only have your encrypted vault.

You can always switch to KeePass w/ Syncthing if you want some peace of mind. 
 2 words: ta too 
 i git commit my nsec what should I do 🫣 
 OUR nsec 
 If you git push'ed it to a public repo you should create a new keyset and post the new npub in a nostr note on your old profile for your followers to find (probably asap). 
 it’s a joke but thanks 🫣 
 Happy to hear that! I just woke up – had no chance 😄  
 Grandpa: "Back then people used to stick our nsec everywhere. Times were different, people were different."

Grandson: "Wow, people were so brave!"

Grandpa: "Your father’s nsec was made equal parts my nsec and your grandma’s, God rest her soul"

Grandson: "That’s crazy! People don’t trust each other like that anymore"

 ... and many are still making progress with improvements. 

Keep #nostr alive. 😎🤙 
 I recommend tattooing yer nsec on the inside of yer buttcrack. If you need it, it's there, and it's also a good reminder to keep that crack clean.  
 my crack has been watered down for years 
 I gonna memorize mine....😂😂😂😂😂
