Oddbean new post about login | logout I'm typing this on a Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite (2018) using #amethyst here in the global south. When scrolling my feed long enough the lag is so bad that I always have to switch to a lesser client. Do developers target the Pixel 8 Pro nowadays?
How is scrolling in @Yana?
I have a Love/Hate relationship with #amethyst arguably the De-facto #android Nostr client. But on my low-end #xiaomi Mi A2 Lite (2018, #lineage 20) the new #primal #fdroid releases have been a god-send. The note rendering still needs work, but the responsiveness is (almost) on #damus level (yes, I have an #iphone to test) Congrats #primal team! nostr:note1eth0xrsrnaw4e692wu2keqwj6l0hgz8e6qrykzvgkezf06effcsqdhhgv9 #amethyst hate: nostr:note13wzfr4pguft9nq3xzwl2g5m7nt79jlypfecauw8zpq2ar8w2ekksmn6uru #amethyst love: nostr:note19sn83wpk53atn8ykpketf3uwrz46r9fu5n0exwmmpa8u73rrvesqmchjpu
How do you like Primal's wallet? They force you to use their wallet to zap and you have to give personal info
LOL I use Stacker.news wallet and #phoenixwallet nostr:note1840e4ta2hz8u7e5lfwcen6x5yl9wrdsx0qvq66yyq4l7qdagn2ts03pf0x
Next version has a simplified layout to reduce the strain in the CPU. Let's see if that solves some of the problems. But yes, Amethyst doesn't work well in devices older than 2020 :( . There is just too much going on.
I remember an old podcast episode where the #primal dev said the client relied on some very aggresive caching and that the whole stack was #foss The secret sauce?
yep, they centralize in a caching server primal offers as well.
Aw #shit the paranoid in me says #primal is the just as willing to sell your nsec for profit. That's what I get for bad-mouthing #amethyst nostr:nevent1qqsycz6d04vl92l6zl52q4tvl6vvyq2agul4jud2xyq5puvak80vg0gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsygqf30agdwp73rnpvnzjmvf6e0csj8vzmwze3xsm4xxmes5kagqu9ypsgqqqqqqs5ssf09
