As we move to make apps friendly for all, it probably makes sense to move away from technical terms for logins. NIP-anything sounds too technical. Instead we can say log in with a nostr extension and include a tooltip on where to find one.

Yeah, adapting is part of growing.
Agreed.
Good call
also means the copy doesn't get out of date when there's a newer nip that does the same thing but better
👍
This calls for terms that are commonly used for those nips.
E.g. NIP-05, NIP-7, NIP-96 etc.
Nostr extension works for browsers but it’s not a mobile device term.
Case in point. What’s a bunker or nip-46 :)
I tried with my Alby id to test what it says.
💯 we need to make it simple to understand these things.
"Log in with Nostr address" for nip46
"Log in with Nostr extension" for nip07
Nostr is a different way of looking at social media and money. Everybody has a different trajectory to achieve this understanding. Using nostr means the user understands the need for privacy, decentralisation and freedom. Don't bother with those who don't. Understanding public and private keys in the Nostr context is like understanding 1 to 10 in supermarkets, there is no way to simplify it, you need counting skills. Making things simple will attract simple people which will hurt Nostr and overload relays with nonsense.
