No-Coiners do exist - I used to be one. The only reason I set up and started it all was because I had the technical know-how and the patience. And, I can confirm, that the tooling is in fact tedious, annoying and really hard without some pre-existing experience. Bluntly speaking, I don't like Lightning - the channel system requiring funding feels like it's an invite-only or pay-to-participate situation.

About the whole Bitcoin church stuff - yeah. I mean, Nostr was made by, and originally primarily for coiners. So there are a lot of them here. The best way to "fix" that, is to invite more non-coiners. One day, I want to write a Nostr client that initially hides the zaps, lightning and stuff untill you actually opt-in and want to participate, with an explanation of what's behind it to the point where it is a normie-client first, and a zap-capable client later.

But also, you could see this as proof how open Nostr is as both a protocol and platform. Anyone and everyone can just come on here, say whatever, and either find a following or... not. ^^ This is why it has become my main social media - and if it wasn't for the japanese idol group I met that mains Twitter, I would've blacked that out entirely (and that account is insanely old by now, too).
