 Ok, i'm frustrated with the wallet thing.  Nwc works fine, but then the few wallets that have nwc integrated are buggy and dont work all the time.  Going back to paying from one wallet, and sending from another. 😒  #WalletIssues 
 Which wallet - app combos dont work for you? 
 Coinos was working, but the zaps dont show up on my amethyst app, so i cant see them.  Was trying Minibits, but it seems to not show transactions until...dont know when.  Then it wasnt sending my zaps at all.   
 Which zaps dont show- sent, or received? Do you know the counterparty wallet? 
 Received dont show up, sometimes sent ones either.  My daily counter doesnt register them i guess. 
 Ugh. 
 @Minibits receiving reports from multiple customers that transactions dont show

@asoltys coinOS zaps dont show up in @Amethyst 
 Weird, as far as I can tell zaps are working on our end. I'm not seeing the lightning bolt icon when I zap now using any NWC wallet. Maybe an #amethyst issue? nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcewvzaw 
 Great new. 👋 hope you are doing great  
 I get that. Zapping notes using a different signer on desktop than I am on mobile (because of their availability) has been an issue for me. I have to bookmark or reply to something, then go find it on my mobile bookmarks/replies, then zap it. Annoying. Because of my eye surgeries I have poor close vision and cannot tolerate using mobile very much, so I prefer desktop viewing/interactions. 
 That's not how this is supposed to work. Blah.  
 I know. Still trying to figure out why nost2x doesn't pop up when I try to zap from desktop. I can zap, but then it disappears. 
 I really do need to figure out desktop stuff a bit more...  
 Okay this is interesting.  
I created my account on Primal and it was seamless setting up their [strike] wallet.  Can anyone answer if you can set up a primal wallet after if you’re having similar issues?? 
 I believe the auto wallet creation is only in the mobile app, it doesn't work when creating an account on desktop and it doesn't let you do it after, so you need to create a wallet elsewhere. I feel like most clients are underfunded and understaffed. 
 This is what I did. I was following a guide where they advised Primal on desktop to create an account.  
 It's Strike? Shit. I was trying to avoid that service since they're kyc 
 When you sign up on primal, it asks your name, your dob, and address.  No ss# but yeah its strike on the back end.  Though it doesnt say it when you’re going through the setup. Was very easy. 
 I did it post-desktop but I don't remember what as all I filled out. It was like, day 2 for me on nostr (Sep 4th)  
 Paying from one and receiving from another is not bad practice at all 
 alby maxi here... renting a hub on their cloud service... it has become my main payment nexus for most things... i buy bitrefill credits for steam and amazon fairly often with it, send sats out to my xapo account so i can go down the street and spend or draw cash

i have never got NWC to work on anything, though i didn't try very hard
