Why doesn’t @0xchat have a lot of users? It already has this functionality plus a built in ecash wallet and nostr following feed.
The name reminds me of Erithreriueum.
I downloaded to phone. But haven’t tested. Wasn’t 💯 on how it works. The way it has been marketed hasn’t been clear. Is it also a desktop client?
idk, answering from 0xchat, but it took me some time, bcs normally I saw you in my Damus feed, but in 0xchat I needed to add you to my contact list, but as I said before, this app looks sick 🥹 When I downloaded it first time I thought that is app only for messages, but it seems like fine client, hope that one they it will be maybe fast like Damus.
Maybe that’s why, it need to be more stable 🫡
It sucks on my phone. Like, surprisingly awful on a phone with top end hardware.
Are you using the latest v1.3.3?
Yes. Just reinstalled it. Slow. Clunky. I get it is initializing, but... Other clients don't take this long to populate something.
Which phone are you using?
Currently a OnePlus 12. It's working now, but... It only started working after I logged out. So... WTF? But it's still... Awkward? Not doing things as I'd expect?
My guess, no public dev to put a face to, so lack of trust.
All the code is open source https://github.com/0xchat-app
Which is good. But who are the devs? 🥷 The most popular clients have public devs who build relationships (and therefore trust) with their users.
Creating bots on nostr isn't as easy as botfather. Also I think UI similarity is key. Also telegram runs on web, desktop and mobile. 0xchat is only on mobile to my knowledge.
