Pro tip: try many clients. Try a strange one for a day. Try a different one for a week. Play around with stuff. Make an effort to discover niche functionality. Nostr is more powerful than you'd think.

Possibly try them with throwaway pubkeys*
My main key is also my throwaway one ๐ตโ๐ซ

Betting that nostr:nprofile1qqsqqqqqqqr99ezjae52qyv8lvyv3x2fdj6xedgar2sgq0gx8t8dhfcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsfa7ute will have a reputation derivation solution by the time I have to throw the key that has seen way too many holes.
We have months working on rotating keys on Mostro to improve privacy, today we just merged the code implementation ๐ฅณ
Give it a look here:
Also do this with a throwaway nsec first.
What is the reason for this?
Be very careful where you stick your nsec.
Kinky
You should use protection, such as Amber. ๐
I had a look at Amber a while back, I'll check it out again ๐๐ป
If only more clients worked with it, nostr:nprofile1qqs827g8dkd07zjvlhh60csytujgd3l9mz7x807xk3fewge7rwlukxgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qgswaehxw309ahx7um5wghx6mmd9usjfpck ๐ค
You know what I had downloaded the wrong app and wondered by it wasn't a nostr signer ๐ These days I try to install from the repository via obtanium
When I called out Fountain for requiring an nsec, a whole shitload of shitbags materialized to tell me it'd fine. Retards.
It's there any way to store it easily like a seed phrase?
Where did you stick it? And what were the consequences?
I stuck it into Amber to protect it. ๐ค
Is there a version of this for iOS?
If you value your main account, trying every app could put your private key at risk. All it takes is one poorly designed app. So, stick to the main, well-tested apps with your main account and try the others with a throwaway for now.
That makes sense, I've only used Primal so far and checked out Wavelake briefly. I'll have a look around to see the differences, Thanks!
Have you tried nostr:nprofile1qqszpxr0hql8whvk6xyv5hya7yxwd4snur4hu4mg5rctz2ehekkzrvcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurvv438xarj9e3k7mgpr9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezu7n9vfjkget99e3kcmm4vsq3yamnwvaz7tm0venxx6rpd9hzuur4vg5xqmxe? The latest version is really impressive, a great client for onboarding new users.
Slowly, I started to try all kinds of apps from the Zapstore. Today I started to use my first VPN ever. IVPN paid for a week with Sats through LN. It probably sounds next to childish, but for me, it's a big deal. Really really nice to be on Nostr!
Nice to have you ๐ค
I should add: Create a disposable private key first so you can paste it in every dirty client you find

Challenge accepted.
Where to begin
"lol, why would I use other clients?"
Also a good way of realizing that some clients are gonna mangle your profile, and teach you the fun of fixing it :-).
Personally I've been getting the most use out of Coracle, Amethyst, Primal, Fountain, and Zap.stream. Am definitely looking forward to cross platform Damus, both for myself, as well as Damus for finally getting to exist on a real computing platform.
done it
#niche
works on girls too
What are your fav nostr clients?
OMG YAS KWEEN !
