Oddbean new post about login | logout are you aware of people working on making nostr easier to adopt for normal people? i can't imagine non-technical persons to understand the crypto keys etc.
Generally a lot of devs tend to argue that private/public keys are easier to use AND understand than the "email plus new password on every site" logins we've been using for the last two decades... So they stick to it and I guess we're in the process of letting the market decide on the best way to implement it by offering a ton of alternatives: https://www.whynostr.com/explore
Which client/ clients are you useing? For iOS some have reported great onboarding success with primal.net
i'm on android, I've tried amethyst and plebstr
There is a primal version for Android, too. You can download the apk directly from their homepage. It isn't as polished as in iOS though, but they're still working on it.
using it right now how do people feel about entering their private keys in many apps? i don't see how this can work in the long run...
how do you secure your keys? i have them in a vault but entering a private key in many apps makes it more and more likely to be stolen... nostr:note1u05q77wkvp2llg5l73zecv0gvf4udnj567jznu9j5tuxs6xlkt0qkcrddh
I do the same atm. I do believe it'll grow up to where you can have a kind of a wallet app for the keys, and delegate all signing to it. I think Alby does something similar, but I haven't tried it! Btw, the suggestion to tag stuff is a good one. Basically lands the note in more global streams for people who might not be following you to see!
Can't recall the name of a mobile app (I believe there is one...), but afaik for desktop nsecbunker solves that problem: https://nsecbunker.com/
