Agreed, but also easy onboarding to a wallet and sending/receiving zaps:

Found out what was wrong with not being able to zap from Alby:

Alby infrastructure isn't supporing sending lightning in the U.S.!

WHY DIDN'T I HEAR ABOUT THIS EARLIER?!

Just like WoS, they won't support US and are winding down their LNDHub (which I was previously able to use to send from Blue Wallet).

So...my experiment to see how easy it would be to onboard to Nostr on mobile only has been challenging to say the least.

- I'm sure Primal is the best if it works
- If Primal doesn't work, and now both Alby and WoS are not available as custodial solutions, what is left for a new user?

I run my own node, so I could connect Alby there and would have gotten there anyway, but again, the point was to see how easily and frictionlessly this could work.

Next up is trying Mutiny.

As an aside - I don't blame Alby and @Alby deserves a lot of credit for proactively reaching out to me after seeing this post.
