 you say download this app and I'll send you a zap, he won't understand what it is, but I don't think it's any different with lightning

 I only played around with a cashu wallet ages ago, and had to fiddle about with mints and whatnot. Which I don't think would be suitable for a newbie Maybe there are easier options now(?) and it's plug n play. Which would work for this scenario 🤔

 it's still a little rough, but "nostr" is rough too

 No I get it, and once a newbie has settled in a bit they can play about with the rough around the edges options and trickier stuff. It's just the initial, getting them set up first hurdle I was trying to figure out. 

It's also somewhat annoying for the person trying to help them lol. So also somewhat selfish.

But yeah, I think throw them a primal link initially might work best
