Nostr Web Client

I thought that they were going to allow active users to continue to use it. I still use my blue wallet but maybe it's because it's linked to my alby address

I actually tried migrating but the "backup" BlueWallet provides is a link to a server that no longer runs...

As I mentioned, I don't care much about the few Satoshi I lost (alrhough I would have used them to experiment around here). My immediate reaction is to kick out this BlueWallet fromy phone and I now associate apps like @alby to this bad experience if that would not be for nostr:npub1xv8mzscll8vvy5rsdw7dcqtd2j268a6yupr6gzqh86f2ulhy9kkqmclk3x ;)

Those scenarii don't help install confidence with users.

I can understand your feelings about it. We definitely want to see wallet companies stay around grow their operations or at least give fair warning. I first heard about bluewallet shutting down on Cafe bitcoin. Like you say no warning no messages prior today. Then I started to receive emails from alby that says no need to panic the sats are safe 🤦🏿🤦🏿🤦🏿🤣🤣But they did recommend moving them. I only use bluewallet because it is convenient. I run my own lightning node I guess it's time to start going that route.

I think you could configure your BlueWallet to use your own (LND?) Lightning node.

I don't think they support CoreLightning.

Perhaps BlueWallet will offer Greenlight support when that's available. They could even arrange to offer paid Greenlight hosting, with payment integrated into their wallet, and BOLT12 support to maintain the subscription.
