Nostr Web Client

I'm curious why no nostr clients (native or web) support username/password detection by browsers or password managers like bitwarden.

In other words, why is it that when I log in to a client or "sign up" and generate a new npub+private key, my browser and/or bitwarden extension don't ask to save the credentials?

This could go a long way towards making key management more convenient and secure.

I was working on Password AutoFill two days ago for #Damus I believe it requires #[3] to add a webcredentials thing on his damus.io server, but might be doable. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/password_autofill/

#[2] #[3] Trying to fix account creation to not show the keyboard, but Password Autofill works (username is npub*, password is nsec1*). Ignore my tyiu.xyz domain, it’ll be replaced with damus.io. https://github.com/damus-io/damus/pull/559
