RE: Tradeoffs between Web2 and Web3 accounts
Ah yep, spot on.
In your experience would you say that you're better off setting your recovery account to one of your own alts.
Or to a 'trusted' friend or community member here that has no link to you/your computer?

Good question, as long as they're separate from each other and offline I guess it's the safest method. I haven't had my owner/master keys near my PC in forever so haven't even bothered switching recovery from steem yet on this account, but there's too many people out there that keep them in emails or clouds or on their harddrive so probably best the recovery is the account creator or someone they trust in that case. Worst case is if the account creator isn't that active/around anymore like some on hive already.
Alt can be good if you know what you're doing, but if you already know what you're doing you're most likely not going to get hacked in the first place I guess.
