Wow nostr onboarding is still so terrible!
Tried to onboard @Mohamed to @primal …
- no wallet available in the U.K.
- set them up with a fountain lighting address but trying to paste into primal the scroll view was impossible to paste in (finally got it but normal user would have churned)
- followed him but viewing his profile didn’t show me as a follower and didn’t give him a notification
- tried zapping his first note but it didn’t work - only zapping their profile worked
@miljan sorry for the critical feedback but hopefully this is useful for you guys!

We need a dedicated on boarding client, set keys, profile, relays with walkthrough and then have a safe way to explore other clients
set the country to bosnia 🤐
I tried creating an Alby wallet for my younger cousin because he's so eager to learn about #Bitcoin and #nostr but now it only works through invites and I see many users struggling to get invites.
Thats a common problem these days, there are forums where you can get it from people, but you also can try for a #asknostr, maybe someone can help you with that.
Agree, users don’t have awareness about what is needed to understand privacy and application.
I remember doing my onboarding by joining GetAlby's server on Discord, getting in touch with their #helpdesk and being able to get an automated invite. It was actually a very simple process and I'm almost 40 years old, my younger cousin is only 30 years old, but he has no clue what Discord is or does, 2 weeks have passed and still no joy. Part of the onboarding process is user based research.
☝🏼This is exactly what I’m working on… but better. The “walkthrough” is provided by advocates, who invite their friends to Nostr. Customizable invites allows for different welcome screens and recommendations for content and friends.
Coming soon….
I tried but i wasn't able to generate the QR code will be following close
Gosh darn…. Follow for updates.
## 👋Welcome Nostrich
be patient :) on boarding comes from other users too.
Here are some guides that can help get you up and running. I've also included some stories from my home island for entertainment. Do enjoy. My guides have lots of visuals.

I have some invites for #getAlby!

@npub1xr3f...8tjj needs one!
Grab this one: e4a77504
If someone else takes it first, then you gotta try #getAlby new selfcustodial one ;)

Absolutely and 100% fully agree. All of this is being built by @ManiMe. His vision fullfils all of this.
And my work does also … even if it is slow and purposeful. I am 💯 laser focused on “social onboarding”, and will continue to push this ball forward.
Yeap high hopes on it
