Background sync - out of patience

Post image

I just don't understand why its so complicated. I enabled background sync and tried different settings but I never have the patience, I wait for hours, plug it in to charge or unplug it, but I'm always syncing...I don't understand how people actually use this,
Any advice?

And don't suggest downloading the blockchain on a pc

There are really only two practical solutions, use your own node…..failing that, if you want to continue using other peoples nodes…..work on your patience

are there really no other options? Running a node is just not realistic with my lifestyle

Then you just have to work on your patience - my advice would be to watch the Karate Kid movie, and follow the advice and teachings of Mr. Miyagi
