Yaki has a built in wallet. Primal has a built in wallet I'm pretty sure. WoS is free. Use the free tools available to you and follow the CEOs comprehensive guide above, to fund opening your own channel, node etc. Don't worry. I had the same bad attitude too. It will pass with time though.
This is a real issue. But the majority of people will just use a custodian to get around it.
The majority of people joining nostr won't understand/ strictly want self custody or open source, just like they don't know how their email works... The built in / free wallets work and allow people to progress naturally to self custody and open source as they learn more and choose to do so.
Yep. I agree. Those that want a cypherpunk experience will need to do the work, per usual.
