That's assuming that there is no bad actors or that there wont be malicious actors when nostr catches on. We shouldn't normalise pasting any kind of private keys into any kind of app, website or browser. That's why we have signing devices.

Extensions, a local wallet or a hardware device. Anything device that signs your request local before broadcasting them to the network. Just like we know it from Bitcoin. So yeah Alby, Electrum, anything is better than copying a private key into a website or app.
