Welcome new Nostriches that are joining us through the Damus app, you will probably get at least one bot saying that they can’t zap you. Last I knew, Apple made the Damus crew remove zaps again ( jb55 right? ), here is a link to an add on that will enable zaps on Damus for you. #nostr101 #welcome2nostr #introductions

One question I hear most from…

One question I hear most from new nostriches is “how… setup/where do I get/how do I link/etc. lightning wallet?”
1st thing new nostriches…
YOU DO NOT NEED A SELF-CUSTODY LIGHTNING WALLET. Yes, running a lightning node and non-custodial would be awesome, BUT that is not for the faint of heart and requires you to dedicate at least a million sats usually to maintain channels and time.

2nd don’t worry about a custodial wallet for nostr zaps, you most likely will never have more a lot of sats on it at one time, just get a Strike wallet, or a Speed wallet… Wallet of Satoshi if you are not in the US… those all are fast and easy and unless they have changed anything since I created them, all you need is an email unless you want to buy sats. Once you have the wallet, just put your lightning address where every the app you are using requires it… sometimes in the profile edit, sometimes in settings, either way it’s easy and you can get zapped. The ability to use the wallet to zap with may be different depending on the app you are using it from, but asknostr if you can’t figure it out. Bingo now you have lightning set up on nostr.
