Okay, I think I fixed it. Apparently I was in the wrong nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm site for adjusting my settings???

Had to log in to the "web account" to find the right location. Only entered my public key there and it SEEMS to have worked.

While I've been thoroughly impressed and satisfied with almost every aspect of nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm since I started using it, this is one area I found very disorienting as a user --> a differentiated sense of "location"

There are, from what I can gather, at least THREE different "locations" where I can fiddle with my Alby account:

1. The extension. The actual little popup window you see when you click the browser extension icon.

2. The browser page that loads from the extension (???). An actual webpage that loads when you click "Settings" within the extension.

3. The web account (??). The actual getalby.com website, to which you must sign in, and which is, apparently, separate from the browser extension.

I was trying to accomplish the nip-05 process in location 2 when I should have been in location 3.

But there are plenty of menus, pages, and fields in location 2 that seem to indicate I can sort out the nip-05 situation in that location, but only if I enter my private/master key?

I finally, through sheer dumb luck, stumbled upon location 3, which had ANOTHER settings menu, wherein laid my nip-05 salvation.

Just a little UX feedback for the fine folks at nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm, who are doing God's work and have built a brilliant, important product for the future of digital value, and whom I fervently hope will continue in their efforts.
