Alby on Nostr: daily reminder to 🔒 BACKUP YOUR KEYS 🔒 ...

daily reminder to 🔒 BACKUP YOUR KEYS 🔒

quoting note14wc…nmwx

so I rugged myself

lost my nsec

looking for people to lecture me about responsible backup procedures and mnemonic writing and nostr self-ownership if possible

I wrote a mnemonic down and wrote it wrong, or wrote the wrong one, or something. I dunno. Ever look for your keys forever and find them in the fridge? And wonder if it could actually be elves or something? That's what this is like. I can't believe I did it. But I did.

Anyway, here I am, back, with a new npub and nsec, and I've tested whether I can recover it with the mnemonic this time, not just written it down.

so just FYI

Here's the old npub:

UCantDoThatDotNet (npub183s…hgm4)

I prove this new one here is really me, and not some equally ascerbic imposter, by putting this new npub on my website ucantdothat.net, and also my alby address is connected to this new npub.

If that's not enough proof for you, I can meme your shit up right, son
