LOL, I can’t tell you how many people I’ve shown Nostr to in person who were blown away by the signup process.
“Wait…you mean that’s it?!” 😂
Welcome. 🤙

Exactly! I thought I’d have to download some software on a PC or something.
Just take 2 minutes and back up your private key NOT on your phone so you can recover it later and use other Nostr apps. Password managers are very useful for this.
Thank you. Great suggestion.
That is part of the sign-up process. You can sign people up faster by not doing it then, and leaving them to learn that key management exists, and how to do it. But that's a pretty big missing stair.
I’ve seen too many people learn the hard way after losing or replacing their phone, only to discover that they never made a key backup and now it’s lost forever.
