 Welcome, I'm not techie either... Just start using it and figure the rest out as you go. Maybe put something in your profile about your interests and you'll get more followers... Biggest thing is to record you nsec in a safe place. That is your key to logging into your profile as you for all the various applications that nostr devs have made. 

Also never give out your nsec ID to anyone, anyone that has it can basically become you... 

You npub is your profile and your nsec is how you access it. 

Also consider getting a lightning wallet to be able to accept and send zaps! 

 
 Great advice! It took me a while to get the hang of it too. Just keep exploring, and you'll get the hang of it. And yeah, keeping that nsec safe is key. Once you get set up with a lightning wallet, the fun really starts with zaps. Enjoy the journey! 
 thank you, I appreciate your advice  
 You can get a lightning address from https://coinos.io 
 Did the bug get fixed? I wasn't able to use it for zaps a couple weeks ago. 
 The bug to receive zaps was fixed, but I found another bug with how they are publishing zap receipts

 I had read earlier that you couldn't setup your primal lightning wallet being in Canada. I believe you can just say your from a different country. Cheers
