Does nostr allow you to upload custom emojis or otherwise embed images in text posts? 
 I don’t know of any clients that support it. 
 Shit. They dont fucking support literally anything lol 
 I have this keyboard that inputs emojis everywhere it might as well be malware 
 They barely support reading post threads. 
 Real 
 Are they too busy being fat fuckin bastards and eating cheetos out of their belly button or what? 
 Idk. Whatever the case is, I usually tell people interested not to use Nostr unless they’re treating it like an Alpha build, because that’s essentially what it is.

I won’t lie, I’m disappointed in its progress, as well. I thought it was going to catch up quickly because all the clients went from unusable dogshit to decent-ish in just a few weeks early this year, but that stagnated quickly, nothing has changed or developed at all since then.

It’s still better than Fedi for my needs but that’s probably not true for most people. 
 Oh man I just don't get what their issue is. I feel like they want to bullshit by saying nostr is new blah blah blah SHUT THE FUCK UP you fat pancake ass bitch. 

They're too busy jerking eachother off  
 They're more interested in circle jerking about the really cool tech and zaps and whatever than making it usable.

"We support the latest NIP-69! Wow!"

Who cares? Only nerds care about the tech everyone else just wants a usable Twitter clone. 
 Client devs are Nostr’s worst enemy.
