Question about key management - Am I expected to just drop my nsec into the Plebstr app to access login?

How it is secured? What risks is one taking logging into Plebstr with their nsec directly (as this appears to be the only option)

If you think of your public key as the "username" and the private key as the password, then it's uncontroversial to enter your password to gain access an app or website.

Yeah, that (for the time being) is the biggest different between Bitcoining and Nostring. However, if and as the Nostr protocols grows, spreads, and reputation becomes entrenched here - loss of nostr nsec could still be quite devastating.

True.
