Me too. Believe me, if I can do it, you can. This was easy compared to my struggles with my node, switching to Linux, switching to NixOS. I'm tech challenged, but I really get an enormous amount of satisfaction once I succeed, even if I had my hand held all the way. In this case, I had the added incentive of breaking away from big tech tyranny.

And it truly annoys me when I listen to podcasts and people are like just jump in the community is so nice and willing to help. The you actually test it and your requests for help go unanswered on GitHub.

Very true. This tech sub might be the perfect place for people who know what they're doing to help those of us who lack expertise.
