My login extension NOSTORE isn’t working either.

I don't get why devs continue to launch #nostr apps with 'Login by nsec' ... No excuse for this, at this point i will just assume they are a bad actor trying to steal nsecs.

Ikr! I literally abandoned my first account because I went out and downloaded every Nostr app for Android and gave it my nsec. Then I'm like, "Hmmm. Maybe I should find a way to use a keystore. Ppl told me how to get Amber. So I abandoned that account, got rid of most of the apps and started using this one with mostly keystores. I say mostly, because wtf Primal? You obviously know how to use a keystore on desktop, why are you not offering that option on mobile?

Turns out my key extension needed to be updated, disregard!

So it works with Amber?

That’s another key extension right? It should

What’s the alternative?

Amber or browser extensions.

How does that work? How can I login without nsec?

That sounds like logging into my mailaccount without giving the password to the new client.

Install Amber on your phone.

The Nostr app you want to use must support it tho.

Anything for iOS?

I don't know, I don't use Apple. No point using freedom/privacy tech on top of a closed-source spyware operating system like iOS.

What laptop are you using?

Doesn't matter, just run Linux on it.
