Temporarily, according to its creator and mainteiner, who has found some critical bugs he's working to get fixed. Isn't it great that we can still be using dozens (if not hundreds) of other Nostr clients while one (or more) of the clients (or the relays) aren't up and running for whatever reason? Isn't it the raison d'être of Nostr in the first place to be resilient and censorship resistant? So, there we go... :-)

It’s probably a bad idea to be giving your private key to any and all clients
It’ll be interesting to see if Nostr can make use of some OS-level key management APIs.

You don't have to give your private key to any and all clients.
You can give them your public key to most of them, and your private key to one or two.
It will use key management in the future, but it isn't probably a priority for the devs right now.
