Take it with a grain of salt, but in my opinion generating them with a client, locally in your devise and use it on as few new clients as posible. Every time you enter your nsec on a client you are trusting them to some degree (unless you know the code and have checked it)

If you use web clients like nostrgram, iris, etc... use a browser extention like Alby, so even if you still put some trust on a 3rd party you only do it once, on Alby for example.

Maybe consider getting a NIP-05 so if your account is compromised at least your followers can follow you by your NIP-05 to your new account.

Maybe have back up your follow list now and then, and your relay list, just in case if you have to get a new pair of keys, but this is not a bitcoin wallet, so loosing it is bad but not THAT bad I think

Thank you! All of this is new to me. I'm very used to btc that's why my concern. I read about nip-05 but I don't have an identifier. Is it possible to create one after having created the keys?

Don't mention it!

Yes, is good to be careful with your keys but try to have fun :)

there are some services that gives you a NIP-05 for free and others are paid services, take a look around before you purchase any but is easy for people to @ you in notes
