It's a hard nut to crack. We want to onboard users to Nostr as quickly as possible, that's why we autogenerate keys and show them a button on main balance screen to back them up (or import) and it stays there until they do it.
Maybe If we change copy of "Setup Master Key" to something else that would make it easier to spot for someone that just wants to import key?
Also, this is the second instance where I have heard of someone logging into the wrong key with the nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm extension.
Sorry this is confusing!
If you connect your wallet in the extension again it generates a new Nostr address automatically. You need to import your Nostr keys you have used, as we do not store them anywhere. Wy try to prompt newly connected wallets to back up or import their Nostr (and master key).
Any ideas how we could make it better?
Not (yet ;)
✨ Introducing Alby Hub ✨
Alby Hub is a new, open source self-custodial wallet from Alby designed to be used in Nostr, mobile & desktop apps, websites, games and more!
It is a one-click install node that lets you connect to dozens of
nostr:npub19hg5pj5qmd3teumh6ld7drfz49d65sw3n3d5jud8sgz27avkq5dqm7yv9p apps.
🐝 Best part - you can use it with Alby Account and that means you can use it with your lightning address. You can also still log in to apps that support "Log in with Alby"
😍 We are rolling out access to the public — if you are interested in Alby Hub, join the waitlist and you'll get it soon 🚀
🌐 Alby Hub works best when it runs 24/7, so users can plug it into many different apps and use it everywhere — on the web, on the go with mobile wallets, inside apps and games — no matter the platform!
🔌 We focus on streamlining the experience of using your wallet in the apps you already love. We have some plans on deeper and deeper Nostr integration, you your Hub will only get more powerful with time 👀
🔐 Your keys are safe and encrypted by a password of your choice. Alby cannot access your funds or reset your password: your sats are truly yours, and with that comes responsibility!
🧈 To make spinning up your Hub quick and smooth, we offer Alby Cloud subscription for our users. For 21k sats / month you don't need to worry about any hardware or server hassle: you get a link access to your hub, priority in-app support, access to Alby Buzz community of Alby supporters, and more to come!
🆓 However, Alby Hub is100% open-source and you can also run it completely for free on your own device, personal server or cloud. Feel free to verify, suggest and contribute to code: https://github.com/getAlby/hub
⚡ Our mission is to make lightning decentralised and easy. And make some of those zaps stats less custodial... We're working on creating an experience to open and manage your first lightning channel that's not scary or difficult.
📰 Interested reading more about the Hub? Check out our blog post:
And here it goes 🚀
Own your keys, run it in a cloud and safely use your wallet in apps.
You can use it in the browser extension, mobile apps, native apps, games, podcasting apps — anywhere you were able to use Alby Account so far and anywhere with expanding nostr:npub19hg5pj5qmd3teumh6ld7drfz49d65sw3n3d5jud8sgz27avkq5dqm7yv9p

Hey Kieran, Alby stream is on since Friday. I ended it in OBS and it's not streaming anymore but it's still going on on zap.stream eating up sats. What to do?
Yes. Mints should be run between people that trust each other
What's best desktop alternative to Primal?
I had an error accesing the dashboard, it worked later but didn't update stream info
How to actuaklly start a stream on zap.stream now lol?

Same here actually. Haven't used 1.0, yet.
You can install the Alby Hub alpha version from the Alby Umbrel Community Store. Here is a step by step guide: https://app.supademo.com/demo/clyrcc5ao0e5ez9kdnu6vls08 (basically add the store, click install, and go through 2-3 onboarding steps)
It either works with the Umbrel LND (default), or you can create use a fresh embedded wallet.
let me know if you need help and looking forward to your feedback.
1.0 seems more stable, I recommend to update

There won't be ever KYC. If you run it on your own, it's free. It's open source. You can fork it. If you want us to host it in a cloud, that's what we charge for in sats. There are topups in app with some soft KYC like Moonpay, you don't need to use them though (and it's Moonpay doing KYC, not us and we do not see or collect anything).
We will not need to have KYC for users because of that, ever. It's self-custodial wallet in the end. What we offer as a service is cloud service, not wallet services so we will not need to do KYC. And never will
Discussions with you are hopeless, you’re just fighting a straw man all the time
Announcements coming soon, don’t worry you don’t need to do anything now
We are small team of 10 people. We will not lobby US or EU to change the law, you either do KYC or go self-custodial. We chose the second path.
We also do not want to hold anyones funds, regardless of the law.
Paid will be only our cloud service to running your self-custodial wallet.
You will still be able to use extension and Alby Account with LN address for free, If you run the node yourself or connect any other NWC wallet.
Would you prefer KYC? Or expect services for free?
What shitcoins do you have in mind?

I don't think that's the issue here
