Missed one. Owh well, I'll do better next time

I can't find my own post 🤔

I tried smiling and waving at people when I would catch them looking at me when I was living in Germany. People pretty much always looked at me like I was mentally deranged afterwards. Maybe I'm just ugly.

Agreed. I'm just firing back for the fun of fucking with her.

One time at college some of us in a club put our money together to buy a wifi router cuz our school only had Ethernet based Internet. IT denied our request to have them add it to the network so I took a stab at guessing the password so I could configure it myself. It was Admin/Admin 😂

Yeah it's an awesome visualization. I always got the sense it was much more regular than it appears.

When I post a note or reply through Amethyst I see these buttons at the bottom of my screen. I know one lets me add pictures from my phone and another lets me share my location. What do the others do? I've attached a screenshot for reference.

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! 🤙

Thanks Derek, I was wondering this exact thing. How do I do this on Android? You mentioned Nos2x and Kiwi Browser. Do I just download Kiwi Browser and install Nos2x within the browser somehow?
