Replying to Nostrnewbie

What are peoples tips for security and anonymity using Nostr?

I take it your IP is still attached to all of your broadcasts, but how is it stored?

Can someone help me understand the privacy dynamic on Nostr as a technology?

Thanks for raising awareness. Add an LN address man.

I don't have one. I've been meaning to do some research on the lightning network.

It's okay to start out with a custodial solution. Download wallet of Satoshi and your good to go.

Then when you're ready, pay Voltage.Cloud a monthly fee to run your own LN node, and set Zeus wallet up to that node. Or, use Phoenix Wallet which is in my opinion the easiest way to access lightning in a non-custodial trust-minimized way.

Feel free to reach out to me if you need help or just sparring on stuff.

I don't mind putting in effort to self-custody. Thank you for this response, I'll use it as my basis for research and get back to you if I'm struggling with anything.
