Good night Nostr. It was another incredibly wild and fun day building and chatting with all of you. Merry Christmas. <3
**Attention new plebs that joined Nostr this evening:**
While you're trying out new clients, don't just go and enter your private key everywhere. This is like the private key for your bitcoin. You want to keep it safe.
There are extensions that can help with this. Either [nos2x](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nos2x/kpgefcfmnafjgpblomihpgmejjdanjjp) or [GetAlby](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/alby-bitcoin-lightning-wa/iokeahhehimjnekafflcihljlcjccdbe).
Once you have these installed, visit metadata.nostr.com and setup your profile picture and your name.
When you're ready to setup your NIP-05 ID, you can either do this yourself or use the service that #[0] and I setup. Visit nostrplebs.com to learn more.

Can you explain how to use private key w Alby? Do you generate a private key there, or input the PK provided by Damus upon sign up? I tried both and neither seem to work…
