Replying to Avatar Aida

Yeah, that is why I don't give apps the direct access to the nsec and why I limit what permissions they have in Amber.

I read the raw json of the notes to see what is in it.

That's paranoid. Like you really belive that, say amethyst, will show you 100 times the real thing and then suddenly go rouge?

In my experience I see

“signer X is asking you to sign kind-818171”

It is therefore not crystal clear or human readable, to the prompt reviewer what they are being asked to sign.

I would not sign that without looking at it and understanding what it is.

Yeah it is a bit. In the case of Amethyst it can do posts, comments, reactions, drafts, but for example addition to follow list is something I still check manually to make sure that the newly signed list is not damaged. I'm not thinking that Amethyst would do this maliciously, but it can still happen due to a syncing error for example.
