How safe is NOSTR, if my nsec keys are held on a compromised computer...? Can a Yubikey as a two factor authentication 'passphrase' ensure non authorized access by bad actors who might have access to the root of a computer OS?

With any Trezor... My advise at least is: 1. If a model is discontinued, stop using it and buy newer model. 2. Don't use web enabled Trezor Suite software. Only stand alone Suite app. But check where you download the Suite app and Udev's from.

Seen yesterday [29/07] at the FreeMadeira meetup and so incredibly impressed... This is the summit of sovereignty... running Archipelago as your Nostr Node with capability of side stepping the Internet at all with Mesh. https://www.youtube.com/live/gJAhic9ynvA

I would be careful even with using a Linux/Ubuntu machine with compromised kernel. Root access can be just as dangerous using online Trezor Suite software.
15+ years ago I already said and whole heartedly believed that modulair, open source and bottom up [souvereign] is the only way to go. Then as a non registered nomad I had the almost ultimate sovereign freedom.
Like Joe Nakamoto said in his videos: Top down adoption will not work. Beter have politics that stays out of the way.
As border authorities recognize hardware wallets and demand access, a Nitrokey could be a viable solution. My mind is not good enough to remember 12 words.
I would like to see more safety options of a hardware wallet with yubikey two factor self sovereign authentication.
I've update my Ubuntu Linux kernel to the latest version. Am I now finally safe from root hackers? Now researching if I can lock it extra with a Yubikey.
I saw the presentation of Archipelago from the guys of @sovereignengineering last night [29/07] at the freemadeira meetup. So incredibly impressed.
