Is there a reason why Nostr seems to stall at times. Almost looks like it’s loading see pic below https://m.primal.net/KGBy.jpg
speed is the greatest feature... nostr:note1n9mwhs4frvnzpuatw6wkzg47rzh2yj49kl728fr4lk8xqpzfl98qeqat5l
This isn't Nostr stalling. Nostr doesn't have a "trending" feed. This is Primal, which is creating a trending feed of content from Nostr relays using its own algorithm.
I dunno, sometimes some relays have poor connections and get flooded by other relays that they bring feeds in from. Mine is connected to a bunch to bring in new posts from a load of different relays (under the Global page) to help start conversations - I hope mine's not slow! 😬 Sometimes profiles just don't even load, so I have to use nak to get them and/or their previous posts, even when following someone. If my profile doesn't load, it's @Waethorn . You can add my relay at wss://freespeech.social/relay , or try the frontend here (uses Soapbox on Ditto): https://freespeech.social
Making this stuff work fast entirely in the browser is really hard. Primal already does some caching but we need some more reusable tools for caching. The ATproto app view does add a layer of complexity but it also means that client developers don’t need to figure out as many tricky performance issues.
It’s not nostr, it’s your client.
I switched from Damus to Primal not too long ago and it’s been a way better experience. Is there anorher client that’s better?
Nostur is in the same league as those you’ve mentioned
