Yeah no one tells you this until you complain loudly after spending hours/days trying to figure it out. Now that I finally got my Alby invite (took them a month) lol I gotta figure out how to replace my Primal wallet on my nostr user profile without losing my current Primal sats. I assume that I can send the balance to my Alby wallet first.

You can send the sats to alby if you want, Primal has a custodial wallet, you wont lose your sats unless you forget your nsec or they rug you.

Thank you for that. I'll give it a try

Bitwarden ftw. I keep my nsec encrypted there

Take a screenshot or write down your Primal LN address…thankfully I had done some before messing with wallets (similar issue as you with choosing a wallet) to utilize with Nostr…

When you change your LN address in one Nostr client it changes it to all so I almost lost my Primal addy

Yeah I took all that info down when i set it up so I could teach others. I'm going to dump my sats from Primal to my Alby and then go from there.

I’m like 80% there…

If I want to #zap outside Primal, such as on Fountain or Habla

Then I need an NWC based wallet and I tend to operate from a “go to the source” of something.

Since Alby created NWC it seems the logical step.

Only thing holding me back in the ~16k sats to open a channel.

I’d rather hodl those LOL

Short sighted probably…
