Nostr Web Client

it generates in damus format instead of normal hex?

When I initialized Damus it said that the other format was “old” so I assumed the `nsec`/`npub` format was preferred. But I dunno.

i honestly don't know either? i just noticed that all other clients seem to use the hex format and damus.io/key exists to convert keys.

nsec/npub preferred because it makes one slightly less likely to paste the wrong key

Gah, all this pasting of private keys into apps and web browsers is just so icky!

yeah... thankfully nos2x chrome extension exists. and i believe alby also works as well.

We’ve been trained to not trust chrome extensions either, though!

sure, you're correct. that said, it's written by #[4] and you can run the open source version in dev mode.

That's my impression as well; nsec/npub preferred.
