Oddbean new post about login | logout What's the place to get back all of the people you follow on nostr? Just had an "accident" and now I'm only following 8 accounts.
Maybe metadata.nostr.com can help What happened? What app caused the accident?
Lulz. That just saved my profile with 12 people I am following. Still early.
I don't think there is such a place.
There used to be. Can't remember.
I went through your list about a month ago and followed a few of your follows... so mi casa su casa in a way.
Thank you, Lee. Got a fair few back following your list. Much obliged.
When that happened to me I was able to get most of it restored using Nostur, but you had to have already been using it prior.
For bear's sake, please don't go close to waters. Provenly it increases the chances of a boating accident.
Depends on whether you have made a backup of them anywhere. Citrine can restore your follows for you if you are running it and have previously backed them up. Same thing with https://metadata.nostr.com/ If you haven't backed them up anywhere, though, I am not sure what to do.
How did it happen?
Tried out a new client. That always seems to precede this type of event occurring but I can't be 100% sure.
What client? The last year I’ve become more and more lazy and only using Primal now. You made any good Nostr experiences lately? Something that I should check out?
check out ditto.pub

this kind of incident seemed to happen to me when I switched nsecs and then, while going from home page to my profile page, I 'liked' a note, before the change fully happened. Got an error warning when liking' note. Lost all I followed. Something to avoid doing again.. Seems I need to refresh profile page few times before current nsec is visible.. and only then like or zap stuff..
Don't know if you managed to find a copy of the old event, but if so this is the fix: https://habla.news/u/alex@gleasonator.dev/1718477124783
??? What was the patch or fix?
Trying a new nostr client is still dangerous.
I am going to add another one and have my handle be @satoshinakoto after being convinced by one using Bitcoin Belle that "nobody owns a nym". You can call me Shi Moto for short. 🏍️ 😂
I should have a test nostr ID. Pretty stupid of me not to use that when trying out new stuff.
Like Bitcoin uses alts for practice and patching 😁
what I dislike the most about using more than 1 app is is wrecks block list.
This is the best way I’ve found so far. I’ve used it multiple times to restore. Works really well nostr:note1tc266xt268dh8ppgx6tu9dmx47qstcxxmd4tq2zd42lkee0zju0q7qguz2
Is it paid or free?
