 We need a dedicated on boarding client, set keys, profile, relays with walkthrough and then have a safe way to explore other clients  
 There is so much we can do for Nostr, but OpenSats is dev-led, and devs in the tech world are know for being bad business men.
On the other hand, Primal is addictively cool. 
 This.

 yes, UX and scale will matter 
 Why not having it integrated in existing clients? Sure it's more fun to build new stuff but a small intro when installing a client the first time or an optional guide should be doable. Seems not sensible to me to just have an onboarding client and push people to different clients afterwards. 
 😱

 “Social Onboarding” will be the de facto “product requirement” definition for all clients “who onboard”. Personal invitations are the “acceptance criteria” that strengthens webs of trust. 

Catering to the needs of advocates who “share Nostr with their friends” is how we move forward to solve for onboarding challenges.

I am developing the reference client and an SDK for others to implement in any client.

 I tried creating an Alby wallet for my younger cousin because he's so eager to learn about #Bitcoin and #nostr but now it only works through invites and I see many users struggling to get invites. 
 Thats a common problem these days, there are forums where you can get it from people, but you also can try for a #asknostr, maybe someone can help you with that. 
 I remember doing my onboarding by joining GetAlby's server on Discord, getting in touch with their #helpdesk and being able to get an automated invite. It was actually a very simple process and I'm almost 40 years old, my younger cousin is only 30 years old, but he has no clue what Discord is or does, 2 weeks have passed and still no joy. Part of the onboarding process is user based research. 
 I have some invites for #getAlby!

DM me for invite code... or betatest of something new!

If someone else takes it first, then you gotta try #getAlby new selfcustodial one ;)

 Agree, users don’t have awareness about what is needed to understand privacy and application. 
 “Here’s this new thing called nostr. In order to use it you need an 
1) onboarding app
2) a keystore app
3) a LN wallet app
4) a…
“

💀

Perhaps there is shared onboarding SDK, product requirements, and acceptance criteria for each nostr app that allows for creation of keys instead. 
 ☝🏼This is exactly what I’m working on… but better. The “walkthrough” is provided by advocates, who invite their friends to Nostr. Customizable invites allows for different welcome screens and recommendations for content and friends. 

Coming soon….

 I tried but i wasn't able to generate the QR code will be following close 
 Gosh darn…. Follow for updates.  
 Absolutely and 100% fully agree. All of this is being built by nostr:nprofile1qqsd7ele5ljpzft5tjl84naae5pkj9uqcepa77adwr6ayyy0948uyqqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qtxwaehxw309anxjmr5v4ezumn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tmwwp6kyvtdv9hxcmnxd3uh57t2dpnkswfhxp6rsmtddenhyerew33hqvm2wfkkzcfkxe6nsdpkvankwdm5xgcxxem3w9m8jm3ew3hr7cnjdaskgcmpwd6r6arjw4jsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvshsavanjs. His vision fullfils all of this. 
 And my work does also … even if it is slow and purposeful. I am 💯 laser focused on “social onboarding”, and will continue to push this ball forward.
