 For our next scheduled Bitcoin meetup, we plan to introduce newbies to Nostr.

Which Nostr clients do you recommend? 
 Amethyst, Damus  
 Thank you 🙏 
It mainly has to be android, because most use that 
 In my opinion Amethyst is the best for Android 👌 
 Thank you 
 this is Y nostr/bravo!

 Primal is great for noobs. Make sure to let people now that Nostr clients use a lot of data, so I’d recommend they only use it on wifi if they don’t have an unlimited data plan. 
 Thanks. We were also thinking of Primal. We will try to focus on only one client so that we don’t confuse them 
 Is the built in Primal wallet available in Zambia? 
 Yes, it’s available.

 We like primal.net

 It's been a few months since I've looked at this. 👀 
 I like current for neophytes because it  has no KYC and a 12 word backup. Just be up front with the risk of custodial wallets. 
 I‘m curious if it works with mobile data in Zambia. 6 months ago in Zimbabwe it didn’t. 
 In my 5 million something inhabitant Western European metropolitan area, Nostr basically destroys mobile data, and trying to open any Nostr client without full 5G coverage is futile.
