Turns out the delete button puts the 0 in Kind0

Probably.
I would name that button โNUKE NYM EXISTENCEโ
Delete information. Not create a note and broadcast a kind0 note.
I thought it was just deleting the PK from the app. Not authoring a kind0 suicide note. ๐

Update. Login working again.
LOOONG list episode of #[0] with

Sparrow, COLDCARD, Nunchuk, Keeper, Breez LSP and lost more.
Enjoy
Your latest metadata event no longer has the deleted=true. Itโs pushed to 75+ relays now.
Unsure exactly which Damus checks out of the box, but if still issues Iโd remove the app entirely and try again. https://api.nostrgraph.net/beta/events/7507456bd9aa32e28ccef7d84917c499b05e159628e3c65583a78778299903df.json?pretty=true

To be fair, It does make you type "DELETE". Maybe extra confirm with a full red screen LOL.
But I'm not sure I like the idea of an app authoring a event in my name like that, specially not being a NIP or documented. I think a NIP to handle "account self deletion" to comply with GDPR might be worth doing, if anything because it could describe how to un-delete the account.
All these will be very client/relay specific on how it gets enforced, so would be nice to have a way to unlock yourself out of this hole.
That is pretty cool, at first glance it does seem like a good direction.
Just in case you need, here is my confirmation of the npub remaining the same.

## What happened? @#[0]
The original DERP; I accidentally took the Damus "Delete Account" as sign out (ie Delete Private Key). Which I do have a backup so was not very concerned and did the deed.
(IIRC that's where the sign-out button use to be)
Damus to comply with Apple Store has to have a "delete account" method.
So how does Damus do it? AFAIK, it authors an empty (zeroing) of the Kind0 (profile data), clients rendered it as "nobody" and adds a "deleted account" flag. This means that until this is cleared from all relays and cache you can't login into the Damus app. But this zeroing out of the meta data does seem to cause relays and other clients confused. The contact list (follow/followers) seems to also have been zeroed in some relays.
- The followers seem to be all gone, which is not a big deal ppl who want just go and refollow me.
- For the following list, I just need to go look at an old contact list event and manually refollow ppl.
Because this is not documented as a NIP it's hard to know which relays or clients are honouring the Flag.
I think once the Kind0 of the profile is fully propagated the Damus should let me login again. Maybe there is a bug or IP block on Damus too, can't login with other "non-deleted" keys even after re-installing the app (TestFlight version)
...and then Client/Relays confusion should end.
Going to take a walk... BRB
#[1] pushed a updated kind0 to as far as I could, I think most relays have seen it. Still can't login. Odd enough can't login even from unrelated pk. Some server cashing IPs or device ID? (using latest from TestFlight)
thx. still no luck logging into Damus.
Tried, still can't login on Damus.
