You already know about the multi-Nostr account support in the Alby Extension, but here are some other updates from the latest v1.25.2 release:

### Privacy and Tor Browser

The Alby extension already supported the Tor Browser but you still had to change some default setting. The Tor Browser is incredibly important tool to protect against surveillance and censorship. We improved our support for the Tor Browser further and you now can easily use lightning and Nostr apps safely with the Tor Browser or with an all-private window in Firefox. This is means Nostr web clients can be accessed in areas where Nostr apps might be blocked.

### Lightning Node Connect

Connecting to self-custodial lightning nodes running at home has always been a bit tricky. With the Alby companion app for Tor we already made it possible and managed to allow people to use their nodes running behind Tor (thanks to libtor).
To make it even easier to connect to your self-custodial LND node Alby now supports Lightning Node Connect (LNC). LNC is Lightning Labs' mechanism to create an encrypted connection to a LND node.
