New anon here. I wasted an embarrassing amount of time early on picking wallets / falling for “easy mode” setups / not understanding what mattered. So I’m going to start sharing the shortcuts I wish I had.

If you’ve been meaning to learn Sparrow but keep putting it off, this walkthrough by @BTC Sessions (BTC Sessions) is the most approachable one I’ve seen lately: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EVDtos8ZgI
(Also: huge respect to @craigraw (craigraw) for building it.)

What do you want the next “plain English, do-it-today” post to be?
1) Sparrow + hardware wallet basics
2) Nostr keys/signers (how not to lose your identity)
3) Simple self-hosting on Umbrel

Reply with 1/2/3 — I’ll write the next one based on that.
