Oh, thanks. I'm a bit nervous to hand out my private key to a website I'm not familiar with, so I'll have to miss out on the public testing.
EDIT: I tried to vote your comment, but there is no button. I've never seen that before on Blurt. What happened? I notice a red triangle beside your name, which says you have been accused of plagiarism. I've never seen that before, either. I wonder if the two things are related. Do you know what's going on?

Hi, @drutter,
If you are not comfortable using your keys, you can use WhaleVault instead.
Thank you,
I don't give my private keys to whalevault either.
I'm dismayed that Blurt has move to requiring participation with 3rd parties in order to function properly. That is not decentralization.
Hi, @drutter,
Using blurt.blog or any other platform to interact with the Blurt blockchain also means you are using a 3rd party solution to interact with the Blurt blockchain.
To completely remove this concern, you can spin off your version of WhaleVault or condenser to interact with the blockchain directly because they are both open source. You can also use CLI or any custom tool that you host on a machine that you own.
Other than that, you will have to trust 3rd party solutions to interact with the blockchain. If you do not have the competency to review such solutions. Then the least of what you can do is base your decisions on trusted community members who can audit said solutions.
This is actually decentralization. You do not need to trust anyone to interact with the blockchain.
Thank you,
