 It’s good that Primal is responding to this issue. It sucks though that it takes Jack saying something for them to pay attention to an issue that’s apparently been raised multiple times by a respected active dev within the nostr community. How do we get devs to stop sucking billionaire dick and listen to their users? We’ve seen this before with Damus too. Is it a money thing? Do they care about users? Or just Jack’s money?

If the users were paying them they might start listening.

I N C E N T I V E S

the reason the devs suck the billionaire dicks is because they hope they might get paid - finally - for their efforts. 
 Is they listened to the users they might convince them to pay for their services 🤷‍♂️ 
 Don’t listen to the billionaires, listen to the Corndalorian.🫡 
 Back in my day,  nostr devs used to update their apps in real time to user concerns. 

Now days, nostr devs just respond to jack and their VC overlords.  #nostrati 
 Easy stop using primal, damus and any client that is too good to listen to their users. Have y’all heard of relay explorers? #🦖 https://image.nostr.build/d5bf5732ef7c9bc5d495a922560f7f912509352e9ab53a4ea4e6f43ff008e5c4.jpg  
 It’s certainly a turn off. I will say that I’ve found Miljan to be more receptive to user feedback than Will, but it’s such a different atmosphere here now compared to a year and a half ago when it comes to devs taking feedback from users. As a general rule they all have their fucking heads stuck up their asses half the time. 
 2 years of Nostr development. 

Zero good clients on Android. 

Amethyst is a giant garbage hole constantly producing new features, while the basic functionality and UI still sucks. 

Primal is rather good, but slow.

Can Nostr CEO hire a Chinese developer to clone Twitter please 🙄
