Nostr Web Client

what do you mean? I use Wallet of Satoshi and it's easy. I haven't had any issues with it. Why don't you help improve lightning instead of trying to make a new a Bitcoin.

That reminds me when someone said Bitcoin is too slow and forked it to Bitcoin cash.

i've ran a lightning node for 5 years and i've never had an issue or major problem. i think lightning is easy.

i also have on-boarded thousands of users that are not technical like me. i've on-boarded people in various locations around the world.

my uses cases and comfort levels are not the same as the other 8 billion people on the planet. if that were the case, we'd have 8 billion nostr users and 8 billion bitcoiners.

we need solutions that work for humanity, not just a few technical people or early adopters.

and because of my real world use cases, i know that on-boarding to lightning is a huge cluster fuck.

that's because it's still early, and the fiat system is still dominant and has some of the most intelligent people working on the fiat system.

Bitcoin was the same in the early days, no exchanges, no Bitcoin credit cards etc.

at the beginning, everyone was saying Bitcoin is too slow and it's too difficult to get the normies to join, It takes times to improve a technology, exactly like cars & Facebook, those 2 couldn't handle the world but over time, more people joined the movement to improve cara and Facebook and now the world uses them.

Bitcoin, lightning and nostr is the same. Its being improved everyday and eventually it will be much easier for the normies and the world will join.

Don't lose hope. Bitcoin & nostr is the future. Nothing else.

But it's good you are researching other things so maybe you can take that knowledge and bring it back into Bitcoin and nostr. I might try to check out this cashu stuff too, or wait for your thesis on what you investigated.

Nostr natives and nuts go hand in hand

Cashu offers new users an easy way to immediately receive zaps. They can stack until they have enough to open a channel. Load up the channel and take self custody by closing on chain. Nostr native cashu users move down layers not up.

The thing is also to think like a non dev, apps like Olas was a perfect way to onboard normies (like me) but if they stop developing this kind of creative apps nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft you will never get more content creators. I still

Often think its all too much tech. Ok you will find Nostr (same like bitcoin) when you are ready. But don’t forget to think like a content creator.

Lightning I agree with you too. It all started simple with nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm just a plugin for your browser now its for me to much options (understand regularly pressure to change) but again became to much tech. As a content creator you get lost.

And than we stop because we only want to create ✍️
