 Not sure the discussion is worth your energy Will, this person clearly does not understand how nostr works, and what tradeoffs Primal is making in order to be fast or host a wallet. Whoever wants to understand it, will understand in time.

 I don’t understand it
But that should also be his concern if he wants users to support Damus
That’s the same hubrjs that Linux users have that make people never want to try or use linux
Even tho Linux is better than macOS or windows
Don’t matter
Most people don’t know how to use it
So most people don’t use it

 The app uses primal’s central proxy server to communicate with nostr relays.
Their wallet is hosted by Strike.

I believe those are reasonable trade offs by the way. And they still give you your keys. But it only stays free if we make sure any client can make it.
