I’m finding Primal almost unusable this past week. Why are so many posts in my feed showing the raw note IDs instead of rendering the quoted note? Is this happening for anyone else on Primal? The quoted notes render fine in other clients. @primal @miljan Additionally having trouble tagging users in Primal. Posting this from Nostur because it just works. https://image.nostr.build/c627e5038ab14ecb356cb16f331521818d4e3648d8d4174c11d8584694de7752.jpg https://image.nostr.build/e3fcbaea5cfe3cc6d82f05884c934cbe6ce0b809582bc0bd35e2ba17b90a2a5f.jpg https://image.nostr.build/febcda6dfc243eab256ecbb0fb3fbda8cfc8442471ff696a05c06cbb635ededc.jpg https://image.nostr.build/3c55291b6cccede9f26149b8729595f4cbcefc8bb803ade0d833aad7e1047461.jpg https://image.nostr.build/f745d44dd6d2dc1c9f28753bd0aa34a677161ae5d2dff0aa987104dcccd48341.jpg https://image.nostr.build/198f99e8d31b65a74d536213452e8228221492733ce68c217fc603b8b4a108d6.jpg

Primal has been working great for me up until this past week. It frequently sits spinning/loading and then these other issues I mentioned. Have to force close and reopen frequently. Pretty frustrating.

I’m also finding primal to be broken I posted some Seedsigner news where I showed how I have ported the device over to a new microcontroller and got a development board manufactured. Either no one cares or… maybe primal? nostr:note15fmrue5gv9e6m7hrye8p5s2psllnwgzzp6yy4m25kxfnayqa4zms958hyx

I had the same issue. I started using @nostr.build to upload there and post links here. I hope this helps you as well. https://image.nostr.build/e872aa390e95a982b2747ee13e59980250173ef1f098e168bb786a5d3ed7d274.gif

NtS (Note to Self) from the other day: Once upon a time… Iris would load on my phone in remote places where there was no cell/internet coverage - it was magical. At the time I could barely figure out how to change my profile Pic - I actually made a jpeg because I read somewhere that was how to do it..Haha. It was a fail. Then came Damus and zaps and then primal. I didn’t download the primal app or sign up with an email but enjoyed the limited interface via web. Today primal web client stopped working well … #Nostr has grown and evolved, and it is positive and inspiring and wicked cool to witness, but I’m grateful I entered the protocol early ….before it was leveed. I prefer the vast unknown ocean as rough as it was at time. Bring back stuff that works when the internet and phone doesn’t ;) Make anomalies great again

I see many notes like this in Damus too. I figured it’s because the npub has me muted… if I click on them, sometimes I can read it, sometimes I cannot. In other news, over on #damus , if I click on an emoji response to like or whatever, it will not transmit on many notes. I have to click on the text of said note, then my emoji response will almost always transmit. I absolutely refuse to start tagging Will about it tho. My issue is does not signify, yours does.

Same happened to me. But beside that, I have this simple question. When logging in the first time on a new platform, in my case I was first on amethyst and now I started with primal, it is very strange to enter my private key in a platform which I do not know/trust yet. In my opinion I should never be forced to trust any platform. The private key security is the most important thing of this whole cool nostr thing. There must be a more secure on boarding way than what I had to do, to inspect their GitHub code repository, for the average Joe this is impossible to verify. And in my case I was only able to do it for the web version and not for the Android app. So what are your comments on this @miljan or primal devs? Are there any plans for improving this. At least you should mention that issue when people are on the page where they enter there private key. Are there any NIPS for the process of starting with an existing npub/nsec on a new platform?
