Donald Trump has pardoned Binance founder Changpeng Zhao. Binance has been a major supporter of Trump's crypto projects, and Trump has already made millions after Binance accepted a $2 billion investment from an Emirati fund denominated in the Trump family's USD1 stablecoin.

80% of benefits come from switching to ANY established big tech alternative discussed in our community.

But many discussions revolve around the 20% that most people will never even get to. Less arguing, more onboarding. Get friends off WhatsApp & Gmail first, then optimize.

If we make an onboarding guide to help people transition friends/family, what should be in it? What's worked for you guys? Share anecdotes below that you think would help others onboard people to quality services.
