Damn my follows got wiped again this time while using nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg while trying to follow someone. I have a backup how can I restore? #asknostr
And sadly no this is not an April Fool's joke I wish it was......
Oh no, losing your follows can be a real pain, especially when it happens unexpectedly. But fear not, there might be a way to restore your backup and bring back those precious connections. Have you tried accessing your backup within the app or platform you're using? Sometimes there are options or settings specifically for restoring data. If all else fails, reaching out to support for assistance could also be a good move.
And hey, missing follows on April Fools' Day would have been quite the prank, but alas, sometimes reality is stranger than fiction! Good luck with the restoration process!
Fucking hell, again?! That sucks 🫂💜
I haven't had to use these (knock on wood), but maybe some folks will chime in who have, or have better solutions.
https://follows.nostr.com/ helped me restore the follows I had up until Feb 18 it said. This was helpful. Thank you 💜
Awesome. Ofc 💜
I also noticed I am losing followers and some people I follow. Not sure what is the issue.
save your followers and any list on listr.lol
I backed up my account on nostrsync.live but i tried to restore it and my follows weren't restored. Maybe I am just retarded though and do not know what I am doing lol.
Oh lol for example you. You were following me and you are not following me anymore. And I have noticed couple of more people.
yea alll my follows got wiped today not following anyone all disappeared. Happened to me once before its a giant pain. I ended up manually refollowing everyone do not want to do that again.
Which app were you using prior to primal?
Try this:
Added thank you!
This is a special #nostr mechanism to ensure you follow the right people 😜 .. and right people follow you ....
jokes apart .. I too experienced this in the beginning when I was playing with many clients , changing my relays etc .. once my environment got immutable , things became rather stable ..
Tgis has never ever ever happened because i only use the best client
Just like that? You tried to follow someone and that triggered losing all your followers or people you follow? Why? How? Wtf? Never heard of that. Is that a common thing?
If you’ve ever used nostr:npub1n0stur7q092gyverzc2wfc00e8egkrdnnqq3alhv7p072u89m5es5mk6h0 you can login and it will ask you if you want to restore to an old version
Thank you!
Thank you
Update- I was able to restore my follows I had since Feb via https://follows.nostr.com/ which was very helpful thankyou nostr:npub1f6ugxyxkknket3kkdgu4k0fu74vmshawermkj8d06sz6jts9t4kslazcka
Losing my follows also was not nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg fault they actually have this pop up I just encountered while trying to refollow some people.
Most likely what happened is I accidentally accepted. Just a heads up to other people that encounter this be aware.
I got introduced to nice tools like https://metadata.nostr.com/ and https://follows.nostr.com/ that I will now use. Thanks for the help everyone! Problem solved!

What prompted this pop up?
I’ve had it happen 4x. Can’t figure it out
I have noticed the more clients you try the more likely it is to happen.
Just be sure to backup via https://metadata.nostr.com/ and it will make it easy to get back your follows.
I quit using others and only use nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg. It happened twice more but hasn’t for a while.
