 This is because primal doesn’t support the deprecated form of nip10 which damus still uses. Choosing to not implement deprecated stuff (index mentions, old-style nip10) is a valid choice, but it’s choosing to be broken in some situations and for historical notes. 
 Do you already have an idea? I think backwards compatibility is important for a protocol 
 Thanks. It’s helpful to know why it’s happening. It’s frustrating from a user standpoint because it destroys Nostr’s “post once, see it everywhere” appeal that got so many of us excited when we joined and there were just a couple of clients. I understand differentiation in features and style, supported content, etc. Clients don’t need to be all things in every case. But basic activities such as replies and reposts and zaps, etc., just seem like they ought to work seamlessly everywhere. Otherwise each client becomes a bit of an island to itself. Just thinking out loud. Not pointing fingers at any particular client.
