Hi y' all!

On the android version of primal, I am getting an error message "no relays found. Please configure your network."

While I can see new posts in the feed, I cannot interact with them (like, comment, make a new post).

The settings -> network is still empty on the beta version,

Do you want to use your Nostr private key from the Alby Browser Extension also in the Primal mobile app?

If you want to use https://primal.net/, the browser extension does everything for you and asks you to give permissions and sign events.

oh #GetAlby is an amazing extension.

The issue is with the Android version of #Primal is that it asks for the 'nsec' key, but it's not directly available anywhere in the Alby extension (firefox) or the web version.

The private key under the nostr settings starts with numbers, not with 'nsec'

Hello everyone!

The Primal App asks for the NSEC key, but the private key in GetAlby Nostr settings doesn't start with 'nsec'. It starts with 3 numbers.

Is there a way to find it or produce it via a hash?

#AskNostr #Primal #Alby #GetAlby

The private key in Alby doesn't start with 'nsec'.

I am not very familiar with the nostr protocol (or alby) yet, but I would hazard a guess that the since the Private Key is derived from the Master Key... the M Key is the nsec one? but still can't find it somewhere...

Hi Derek, thank you for the reply!

I already went there, but that's no 'nsec' key if I'm not mistaken.

I tried copying it into #PrimalNet android and it doesn't recognize it as valid.

Hey! Are you a new Nostrich? Are you practicing safe nsecs?

You should never enter your nostr private key (nsec) into web clients. Think of this as your password, but you can't change it, and it's used to post all of your events and notes on nostr. It's very important. You need to keep it safe!

So, if you're using a web client such as snort, primal, coracle, satellite, or iris etc., you should not be entering in your nsec private key into these websites. It's just good security practice! Some web clients won't even function or allow you to sign into them unless you're using a Nostr extension (sometimes referred to as NIP-07).

To help you and your private key stay safe, you may use a web browser extension to hold your key for you and sign your events and notes on nostr on your behalf. The two most popular ones are nos2x and Alby. Nos2x was developed by nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 and is very basic, but to the point. nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm has some nice additional features included, such as a being a Lightning wallet, giving you a Lightning address, and a Nostr address.

I personally use them both for different situations. On desktop, I use Alby. On my Android phone with the Kiwi browser, I use nos2x.

If you have questions, do not be afraid to ask! 🤙

How can I access the nSec key in GetAlby?

#AskNostr in the Android app of Primal.net it asks for the 'nsec key'.

I have my private and public key... but where is the nsec in the Alby extension?
