Oh I understand this more than most I'd bet. Back in December 2022 through February 2023 the amount of Bitcoiners that didn't understand how to register a Nostr address with nostrplebs.com because they didn't know how to use Lightning still blows my mind. Many had never used Lightning, had a node with zero channels, or didn't know how to get on-chain to off-chain. I helped so many people open their first Lightning channels, setup their nodes, or recommend/install a wallet.
And if I'm being honest, a lot of them I had assumed were in Bitcoin much longer than me. I'm fully convinced that 2021-2024 Bitcoiners were born into Lightning and use it much more so than Bitcoiners from previous cycles.
On a related note, can you try a zap again? I think I fixed it. Thank you.
