 Is anyone using the Flamingo signer? 
 What is it?

 Oh, thanks. Now I don't need Nos2x anymore  
 You are quite quick to trust the next thing that wants your private keys. 
 Flamingo has been around for a long time. 
 Ok. I didn't know it. Following @t4t5  
 I'm not saying I'll just go and use it, I'll look into it first. 
 Even if it has been around, I predict a rektoning at some point. The way private keys work with Nostr right now is begging for disaster in my opinion. Especially if broad adoption occurs. Many keys will be stolen if we don't change the current model. 
 yep, it's all hot wallets 
 Totally. As the founder of https://walletscrutiny.com I think about this a lot. Self-custody your keys! With well audited tools!!

I only trust two extensions with my private keys and no client. That's why I'm still not shit-posting on mobile. 
 Do web clients not have mobile styles for small screens? I'd actually be okay using something like that. That's how I used X before going Nostr only.

Although, your extensions would need to work in a mobile browser. Many don't unfortunately. 
 Mobile browsers don't support extensions :( I have to get into nsecBunker. WalletScrutiny devs are currently working on integrating nsecBunker support so ... guess I'll have to jump into it very soon. 
 Firefox supports some. But the devs have to build out the support 
 We still haven't heard your feedback on nsec.app, we really miss it! 
 So this is nsecBunker in the browser? On the website I don't see a nip or standard referenced. 
 It is nip46 implementation, we can say it's a bunker in your browser. 
 Sweet 
 Dafuq is a flamingo signer 
 Yeah, I use it on android/kiwi, Alby wasn't working for some reason 
 Cool. I’ll add it to the signers page on nostr apps. Not sure how I missed it for so long 
 It was the first extension I tried but it isn't fully implemented - or wasn't last I checked. Looked really good! I am on AKAProfile these days. Gets the job done o.o 
 What’s AKAProfile? 
 The browser extension I use for all things Nostr :)

 Good? 
 Yep
