Unfortunately I don't think you can get simpler than nsec login. It's also the easiest way to create an account. Anything more is very confusing for normal people. You either have server-side custody, a different browser app like nsec.app, or a new app on your phone, all of which can have the same problems. A key rotation scheme would be an improvement worth having, and educating users to reduce key exposure and not use their main key for storing ecash or secret communications or whatnot seems like the way forward in the short term at least.
