 that's a really shitty take to talk about how go was 15 years ago and not reevaluate it in the context of where it has gone today and jump on the popular - shitcoin popular - rust language, which is just C++ with the Go compiler tooling

i'm done watching this silly man who hates go and tries to do nostr on ios and then cries that tim apple is a big meanie, done following you

 you pick rust, and oh, you can't have android keyboard

you can have android keyboard on a multi-platform go GUI... pick your poison, gio or fyne

i wrote a fully functional scrollbar for gio, and they still haven't mainlined it

and they kept on fucking around with the API so much my code doesn't compile since about 3 years ago

it's really sad how stupid programmers can be, and you are certainly not out of the box on that count

 i can assure you, in the future, probably before the end of this year, there will be a #golang #nostr client that is one codebase that runs on all platforms, including CLI, and outperforms everything because it can use back end code and my much improved event and envelope parsing code, and because i will build a gRPC/protobuf protocol that will work back end and front end and the client will also run a relay inside it and not duplicate effort by building another stupid hobbled relay, like all the stupid clients do
