I've been thinking through the design of sign-in modals for Nostr clients.
Two challenges/opportunities stand out to me:
-
I'm not sure if extension-based auth should be automatic. I wonder how often a person might want to browse unauthenticated or log in with an acct not associated with their extension.
-
Compared to the legacy flow, I think there's a greater need to provide clear help during sign-in. The auth piece is one of the main differences between what users are used to and the Nostr flow, so it seems appropriate to offer a clearly labeled lifeline.
