That's kind of weird, maybe try coracle.social

Thanks - I’ll give it a spin.
The reason I was interested in your post was because I’m concerned about pumping my nostr priv key into every new app I try - I wonder whether this could become a security hole if someone produces a dodgy nostr app. Do you know if you can use your private key to sign something offline that then proves you own the public key and allows you to access your posts on another app without potential priv key exposure?
Yes, it absolutely is, you should be using a signer to keep your key safe, here are some options: https://nostrapps.com/#signers
Cool - I knew there must be something, but only because I have a basic understanding of private key security. I worry about other folks who might pump their nsec into any old app they come across - we need to make this clearer to newbies, I reckon.
This is the first coherent answer I have received about nsec security - all other people I’ve interacted with on here and 0xChat have been treating it like just another social app and shrugged their collective shoulders when I asked about it.
It looks like, yes, we still need to debate this or at least make it clear to newbies.
Yeah, onboarding is still not really great across the board. https://start.njump.me is a great place to point newbies. It explains things clearly, prompts users to back up their key, and offers a multi-signature bunker out of the box.
Is coracle.social available on iOS?
No, for iOS you might try https://nostur.com/
You can try https://jumble.social/ on mobile as PWA. Works great.
