nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm, when can we see an update that allows me to alter my master key (or at least to some effect of not getting an error since I changed my Nostr Key). Essentially what I'm asking/saying is that because the master key doesn't match my Original, pre-Alby, nostr account nsec, I can't login to certain things with lightning logins.

Its not possible to alter your master key. However, you can override Nostr key generated by Master Key with your pre-Alby Nostr key in nostr settings in the extension!

Yeah, there's some problem where I've added my original Nostr key already and then I can't log into lightning apps because the Nostr key isn't derived by the Master key. I'm not giving up this Nostr account.

is your internet all up and connecting?

just set your nostr key, that should not be a problem. where are you stuck?

I'll see if I can show you from a screenshot. I'm a technical user, so usually I've covered most of the simple solutions.

Okay, here's an example. I tried logging into https://sparkseer.space and received this error:

Log in with lightning are unrelated to Nostr. I don’t know exactly what you did, but I assume you by accident created new master key (eg by reconnecting your account or reinstalling extension). Remember, Alby does not have your keys and each time you connec your Alby Accounts you need to manually import our keys (Nostr and/or master key). Do you have your master key you used for lightning apps saved? Maybe try importing it

Now, I don't *think* I deleted the master key at all before. From what I understand, I may have changed the account from when I went from the web browser application to a self-hosted instance with Start9.

Yes thanks, I was able to solve it!

We know it's a bit complicated, as you have many different keys and passwords in each of Alby products. That's the cost of interoperability and local self-hosting of keys. I wrote this blogpost to clarify those differences, maybe this will help: https://blog.getalby.com/alby-product-ecosystem-explained/

I'll check it out. Thank you!
