Quit babying people. Meet them where they’re at, then drag their ass to where they can handle.

Not sure if this will be an unpopular take but... Obscuring all of the technical detail from people holding private keys -- essentially giving them an "easy button" -- can often result in them feeling less confident about the keys because they don't have any sense of what's going under the hood. Letting them get their hands a little dirty, letting them work with bitcoin primatives (especially ones that are portable between different tools), can help to significantly increase the confidence with which people hold their keys.

Here's a ckn tendy for my fishy 🍗
people are more capable of learnng tools than many like to give credit for usually shysters and midwits like to say that "learning is hard" shysters because they don't want you to midwits because they have got so comfortable with a very low level of challenge for everyday life they have no neuroplasticity
Growing pains. Early 00s emulators helped me develop a high tolerance for janky software, and even then, I have moments when I want to smash my Lightning node with a hammer. Still, Nostr works remarkably well for being such a young protocol. Sometimes I wonder if Nostr apps will always have a higher learning curve than Web2 software, though
