I felt the same way about ukuleles and then ended up getting a guitar, but before I got a guitar, I got a ukulele capo, which did bridge that gap a little bit. Would recommend getting one to spice up the ukulele or making your own.

I considered getting one of those silent pocket guitars that you can buy for under $20 off ebay, it’s what I should have got but just didn’t know they existed.

It’s fine though. I’ll probably get distracted by something else in 5 minutes or when I can handle more screen time
