I would agree with this approach. I have had success with treating new users of bitcoin like my students. Adults get just as overwhelmed and are even more stubborn when something becomes more complicated than it needs to be. Most people learn this way. I try to meet them where they are at and work from there.

Yes, especially when thinking of new users on nostr who have never used bitcoin. Receiving zaps requires a good deal of knowledge, and the commitment of at least a fair amount of funds to have adequate inbound liquidity and a setup that won’t get you rugged by a bad channel partner. And even with all the preparation in the world, force channel closures happen and *poof* there goes whatever you made in zaps because you had to pay high fees for the closure and reopening a new channel. Meeting people where they’re at, like you said, is what it’s about. At some point, for some people, that includes running their own full routing LN node for everything. For most people, it won’t ever mean that.
Yes, 💯 and imagine if you’re the new user od nostr and bitcoin and you put in all of the effort learn and to run a node and there’s a forced closure of your channel. Is that person going to speak highly of their experience?
