Migrating to a new nostr client is a magic moment 🚀

Like restoring bitcoin keys
Agreed that was a huge moment for me. Bouncing from one client to another and seeing my feed load. 🤯
What do you mean?
Run NOSTR on Damus on your iphone, then log into a different client like https://iris.to/ with your private key. Your feed will load instantly, but you basically just switched from one social media platform like facebook to another like twitter. Pair that with a chrome desktop lighting wallet like Alby (https://getalby.com/) and you just switched social media platforms and your bank/wallet just moved across both. So your Speech and Money are moving freely on the internet in a way no one can stop. Wild! 🤩 @npub1s5yq6wadwrxde4lhfs56gn64hwzuhnfa6r9mj476r5s4hkunzgzqrs6q7z
It’s crazy, huh!
Freedom!
I would like to see a way to log into other native apps without exposing our private key. I have Damus on my iPhone and Amethyst on my Android, but I’m afraid to log into Amethyst.
You mean I just need one pair of keys for multiple clients? No servers? Relays? I’m not going back.
💯
Jumping through them from time to time is matrix level.
Which client you like most?
Do you have to do anything other than import your key?
Totally agree. It was one of those moments where you think: "is this what the web will feel like in the future?"
What client are you onto now? Amethyst on android has given me the best experience so far.
Amethyst kept randomly closing for me on GrapheneOS Pixel 5a. I picked up an iPhone SE to check out Damus and it’s a lot more stable. I do think Amethyst might look better but that could also just be cause of the bigger screen.
For desktop/web http://snort.social has been great.

Ya it just feels special. I honestly can't even put my finger on it but sometimes you just know when something comes along and nothing will ever be the same afterwards. This has that feeling.
Your post is being widely read.

Yesterday to debug an issue with my nostr.json file I switched from Damus to Iris to see HTTP responses easily and after fixing the file I saw how verification happened in Damus.
