 I made the same suggestion, to burn an npub, but it didn't really gain traction.

 1. What was this again? I remember that I didn’t like a certain aspect about it.
2. How do you search for it now and find it?

 It's a very hard problem.

 I have my money on social recovery/rotation for what it's worth.

If a few close friends report the account as compromised, for example, and say "this is their new npub" - clients could easily pick up on it.

 Can't get your keys back from some clients.

 yes, web clients are bad mkay, only use alby/nos2x/amber

all good client devs should just remove in-app signing, period @hzrd149  *nudge*

 also, my conservative instinct about using clients has been vidicated repeatedly

losing your keys is just the tip of teh iceberg... having your follow lists and relay lists clobbered is another problem that comes up
