Weird. A moment ago I saw a post from you suggesting delete and reinstall.

I did that and contrary to what it said during the delete it didn't seem to delete the data. When I went back in I was still logged in. How is that even possible?

Yes! We do this in Planetary and it always surprises people. We store your Nostr private key in the OS keychain because that’s the most secure spot we have access to. When you delete an app Apple doesn’t delete the keychain items for that app. So deleting Nos did clear all the data in the database, but when you reinstalled it found your key in the keychain and went ahead and just showed your stuff. We should have UI to ask if this is what you want and let you generate new key or whatever if you want, but we aren’t there yet.

Can you store multiple keys? If so, that would be incredible. Hamstr.to (or whatever it's new name is) is the only Nostr client I know of that allows for easy switching between accounts (but when I looked the other day there'd been no updates to it in the past month - so not sure that's a long-term good option).

Handling multiple keys is huge for people who have to manage multiple brand accounts. (Or even a personal account and an "alt" account). And it's a lot less wasteful. Right now you log into "account 1" pull all the data for that, then logout and login to "account 2" and it has to pull much of the same information all over again.
