Good morning! This Nostr newbie has lost sleep and been up all night due to the excitement over this platform. Also, due to the fact that I’m having a lot of trouble figuring things out. Lots of people have told me to get my music on Wavlake and fountain. I downloaded those apps, but I have not figured out how to use them or share my music through them. I have also tried to set up an account with Alby and It’s very confusing. I went to the website and it seems like I have set something up, but I have no idea what. Any advice in these areas would be greatly appreciated. Enjoy your day!

I like using rssblue.com it's $5 a month to host through them but they make it pretty easy and intuitive. There are a ton of other options depending on how easy vs sovereign you wish to be.
"...beeing up all night ..." Lol I remember doing the same when I joined some month ago. Relax, it takes a little but it will all fall into place. Now for the fun part - not really professional but perfectly possible: attach music to a note that's it. (with your client, I guess you use Primal for now) People might start zapping you right away. I'm testing it for you ⚡

Wow, thank you this is all so fascinating and new to me. I will keep working at it and figure out what my best pets are and I am likely to take you up on the DM offer.
If you're new, you probably don't want to rush into starting your own lightning node with Alby. You should start with a basic custodial wallet, like Minibits or Coinos.io, til you get the hang of sending and receiving lightning payments. When you start buying and accumulating larger amounts of Bitcoin, then you can look into a Lightning node with Alby or other providers.
You’re welcome. Genuinely. Ima Momma Bear 🐻 at heart 💜 for humanity. Have my issues with some of us but always work to keep us together, been on & offline since the 80’s so … kinda weird but it works. Hugs 🫂
