After a brief conversation about #nostr with a normie-adjacent, I'm again thinking that a very helpful and needed tool to drive massive #normie adoption of #nostr is a (sadly) custodial web/app/service that takes care of onboarding for you. It keeps your keys, creates a #Lightning #Wallet for you, creates a #NIP05, and either connects you to, or directly acts as, a relay.

It risks a centralization tendency, but I sadly believe we're not gonna get your neighbour Karen and your grandma here otherwise.

Thoughts?

Alby works in a similar way, creates keys, has a wallet. Are you describing something that holds their hand more than that?

Why not just let them provide all the info Twitter is requiring, like social security numbers etc. I've heard, that makes it the easiest for normies. Giving up every shred of privacy is somehow always too easy for them. 🤔
