I just spent almost 3 hours fiddling around with 4 wallets, dealing with bugs in 3 of them and 2 software crashes, and configuring 2 Linux machines, just to move my own money.

If it's going to be the complex, it should at least be stable. 🙄

Everytime I do something on-chain, I struggle with Bitcoin UX trauma. 😂

oh no, that makes two of us with problems this weekend! although the nerd in me also thinks that sounds kinda fun to figure all that out,

thankfully there is Nostr now to share these moments with because in the past any of these moments would have been much more stressful.

That's true. 🫂

and for the record it was a Ledger Nano S that I want to heap the shame on. It just decided to be coy and not let any USB drive on any computer read it. "ledger says no"

i already feel really bad for shaming ledger. I'm sure it was my own technical difficulties.

I will try it again

Ha ha, same! Had to do this (see Linux and solution 1 and 2).

Solid essy route is Sparrow Wallet on a laptop and a DIY Start9 server running a pruned node.

Might try that.
