I've seen people writing about wanting an "Alby invite" and saw recently that Alby is phasing out the free tier. Two questions:

1. Is this true?

2. If yes, what is a good option for a new nostrich to get zappable? (And by "get zappable" I mean stupid easy.)

I already use Alby and felt it was the easiest and best way for a noob to get a signing extension AND lightning/zapping wallet. Alby is/was my recommendation for newcomers.

I'm confused about the alby thing myself. But either way... Primal is probably the best super easy newbie option. They have a wallet.

Or wallet of satoshi (although app is maybe banned in the US ?)

I've got to try primal more. I've looked at it but then use others. Maybe time for a another look.

It's a p decent app. Works smoothly, even search which is often a bit iffy on clients, v easy and newbie-friendly. I've not actually opened a wallet with them, but I've heard that is an option.

Im going to try it right now and see how newbie friendly it is

Ok just signed up for primal, you have to give them your email to get a wallet. Not a big deal, you can have a burner email or something. I didn't actually do it but seems v v easy.

It asks you your interests then auto follows some really shite accounts tho, which is a downside lol.

But would just tell a new person to avoid the auto follows or unfollow them. Or ideally block them lol:)

But overall will definitely recommend primal for the Total Newb, easiest, fuss-free option. With very little side notes needed. Basically, ignore the follow recommendations and bare in mind other options of clients and wallets are out there as / if you explore more later on. 😽

I like the Wallet of Satoshi to receive zaps.

Agreed, it's very user friendly for noobs (for non Americans of course).
