 Primal is leaving everyone behind with UX, catch up guys.
Everyone is leaving primal behind with speed, catch up guys.

Everyone sucks at notifications.
Everyone sucks at DMs. Kill the fucking DMs till they are fixed. Take them off their misery by hiding on the UI.

I will not write a new client, will just whine and bitch 🤣 😘  
 I think you have enough on your plate than to create nostr client 
 What would you improve about the primal DMs? They work, but I assume not as nicely as a WhatsApp message? 
 DMs on all clients suck because nostr dms suck. 
 The most annoying bit is that, even though the contents of DMs are encrypted, everyone knows who I talk to.

Then to make it worse, we have bots spamming you with who messaged who. https://image.nostr.build/8f192d1f47a7ae79808fba947aac78bed7a09818bb87a1bd41b3429f11964a7f.jpg  
 Maybe you can improve it by the following: E.g. Elon messages Jack, but doesnt want the public to know, that he messaged Jack. So Elon posts a note, which got encrypted and posted into a messages-pool. Jack can decrypt the message with a private key. So now Elon basically messages everyone, but only Jack can read it. Now the question remains: How do Elon and Jack exchange the private keys, to decrypt each others messages, without the pulic knowing it? #grownostr
 
 *So with this, the network would at least only know once, that they both have exchanged keys, but not that they continue to exchange messages and when they do so. 
 Using nip44 encrypted messages, you are basically safe from such behaviour. 
 Check this out. What do you think?

 I agree. I was using Primal for the UI but its slow AF. Amethyst seems to be the way to be the way to go.  
 Hey  @Drew thanks for your feedback! We are definitely aware of the speed issues we're having on our Android app. I'm going to reach out to you via DM, would you mind taking a look? 
 Coming from the the biggest whiner and bitch in the space. NVK strikes again 🤡 
 And if your app isn't perfect on day 1.....shame on you. 
 I just want to be able to tag people without the tags breaking half the time. And copy and paste tags between clients. And tag people in images. We’ve been at this for over two years already. 
 Primal was my favourite until I tried #ditto
