 Hi this is my first post 

#introductions https://image.nostr.build/f573b936d2a0af4822182917561ecf8f6019fcf7288c4fc0f70c7fb6169eda85.jpg  
 Hi Mickredcornwall , and welcome to #nostr! 🤓

I tried to ⚡️zap you some welcome sats (bitcoin), but you haven't set a #lightning address in your profile yet 🥺 Setting a lightning address allows anyone to zap you some sats when they value your contribution, want to say "hi", or any other reason! Good options for beginners to get a lightning address include the Wallet of Satoshi, Speed Wallet or Minibits (for US users) lightning apps 😊

I can also help people check their #nostr address is working (if they have one). Nostr addresses are not mandatory, but some people like using them to add a personal touch to their profile. If you like, I can give you one for free at "yourname@minestr.app". Just get in touch! 😊

Once you've fixed your address, just post a note including #checkmyaddy and I'll check it again for you! 👌 I'll also send you some sats ⚡️ Any questions? Just ask!

 Not sure how to do that! 
 That's a great shot! Welcome to the world of decentralized social communication! 🤙🏻💜🫂 
 Thanks, I haven’t actually got a clue what I’m doing or how this works! 
 You're doing great 😃 
 Thanks.. so am I posting on Damus or Nostr? 
 Both! Nostr is a protocol. Damus is an app that uses the protocol. Think of it like sending and email with Outlook or Gmail. Both of these apps use email protocols. Right now I'm talking to you on an Android app called Amethyst. Pretty cool, huh? 
 Yeah! Mad!! I only just heard of it tonight on a YouTube video, so I downloaded it, I need to get my head round how it works! ✌🏻 
 Oh that's awesome. What YouTube video did you watch if you don't mind me asking? 
 It was one about a photographer who’s left instagram and twitter I can’t remember the name 
 No worries, that’s how most of us get started :) 
 We all had that feeling at the beginning!  
 Hi🙋🏻‍♂️. Welcome to #Nostr.
