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! 🤙

Newbies on #nostr. Take a look at this

Probably a newbie question but is it possible to login to #primal through #alby on the browser? #asknostr

My order: Plebstr, Amethyst, Iris. Primal is looking more promising every day

Spotted outside a bank while having a stroll with the kid 😂. #Bitcoin fixes this

GM ⛅. Welcome to another day on the #nostr matrix

How can I find interesting relays and/or accounts to follow? Also is there a #nostr for dummies video I could share with normie friends? Thanks! #asknostr

#amthyst still doesn't quite convince me. I find #plebstr shinier. But I'm patiently waiting for #primal to take off

GM #nostr #plebs ⚡. Happy to be here

Even though #nostr is still in its infancy, I find it fascinating how many clients are already available to use ( #amethyst, #plebs tr and #primal are my top 3). Imagine instantly testing different Facebooks, Twitters, Reddits just by using your private key. Mind-blowing

What would Stephen King think about #nostr? Lately I've been trying to purple pill everyone I follow on Twitter. Hopefully one day we'll see him here ⚡
