Recently, while looking at a recommendation from @DarthCoin , this question popped into my head!
When I first logged in here, I did so with a Proton email address. And that's how I've stayed.
My question is:
Can I switch to logging in with a wallet or a Nostr key and keep my username? In other words, can I switch from logging in with my email to one of these options and keep my current account?
Yes! You can add a number of simultaneous ways to login.
Go to profile -> Settings
And then scroll down to the bottom where you will see auth methods.
You can click/tap link nostr or any other method.
Adding author methods won't change your account.
Perfect! 🤝🤠
I had doubts about this!
Of course. SN has a couple of methods of signing in. You can do it in the settings here: https://stacker.news/settings
Thank you very much for the information, I need to do that.
Yes. Go to settings and scroll to the bottom. You can add or replace login options.
Excellent, thank you very much for your response.
email login should be used only in cases when you do not have/ want a LN auth or nostr login. Let's say is the backup of the backup login, the last stand in case of SHTF.
But IMHO using nostr as main login and LN-auth as backup is more than enough.
Yes, you can login with both, for example you are not at your usual desk, with a proper browser extension using your nostr login, then you can use a dedicated mobile app to use LN-auth. I will suggest to use a dedicated LN wallet app for this. People are changing frequently mobile apps or refresh install it and with that will lose the access with LN-auth.
Thanks for the information. I'll try to do that task as soon as possible and try what you suggest. I see that in this image you left the multiple options that may be useful to me.
