It's really hard to make things easy.

Driving on an unpaved road is hard. Some will drive on it, some will avoid it.

But also, paving the road is hard. Some will try to pave it, some wont.

We are in the paving roads business.

I wrote a short rant called "fuck easy" a couple of days ago. I've been listening to podcasts and after the 5th person complaining that nostr is too hard (is it, really?) I was fed up and typed this out on my phone. I hope that we can return to a point, culturally, where "hard" is okay, just like the first level of the original Super Mario was hard.

Coddling everyone's mind has led us to the upside-down clown world we're currently living in, and coddling everyone's body has led to less-than-optimal health, to put it mildly. In the Bitcoin world, coddling users and making things "easy" has led to Coinbase-by-default and other stupid bullshit, and I truly am fed up with all of that.

There is a better way, but the "better" isn't necessarily "easy."
