Oddbean new post about login | logout nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcewvzaw thought about adding wallet settings to settings menu? It's kind of hard to discover NWC in long tap
Maybe not in settings but wallet menu when clicked on PFP
Theres a wallet setting under pfp?
No, no I mean wallet deserves to have it's own menu
Somewhat on purpose. We don't have great explainers for the NWC setup yet, so hiding it and forcing people to ask the network for help was the easiest way to activate personal support to explain what it is and they need to do. It's kinda the opposite take of the Relay Settings screen. I am unhappy with both cases. If we explain the options in a UI, it's too much work and people just give up. If we hide, it doesn't really get that much use. Anyway..
BTW, the I am just finishing the new Tor settings and I think this is going to be as hated as the Relay settings. Design is hard.
i think people would use the relay settings more if it had a wizard to help them pick relays.. nip66?
Not likely. I think we need to break it down into many dialogs and place each dialog in the part of the app that uses those relays: dm relays on DMs, search relays on search. I just don't know what to do with the outbox ones because there is no screen that uses them (they are made for your followers, not for yourself).
i think users read the helpful text, but they could benefit from a list to choose from (kinda like search). it could say, looking for an outbox? heres some nearby outboxes that are (these traits).
designers are going to tell you its too complicated. The design will be difficult, perhaps the most difficult design since mobile screens, but not impossible. The downside to building an app with no settings is that users are left uneducated and helpless when they branch out to another app that also ignores relay settings. it creates a knowledge death spiral, each app kicking the user down the road, short term adoption that leads to centralization.
Yep, but we need to be careful on the recommendations to avoid taking liability and centralizing the ecosystem on them. Ideally I would just send people to a website designed to evaluate relays to see which ones match their needs. But we may need to do that service inside the app.
nip66 has geolocation and anyone, including apps can send or attest to this data. its nostr watch 3.0, no apis, just events
I have some ideas 😉😉😉😉 https://cdn.satellite.earth/dfbcd84c461ba2a836cff837d2bcd808ec59e36ddb6a9c0f88300a2e5b7a2a21.png
You don't publish your article on Nietzsche in the same place(s) as your Meme on Zapping Vitors Nips. If there is such a "same place", it's your personal relay. For most other pieces of content you publish it in an appropriate set of publication houses (i.e. relays).
Even these posts I wish I could target to communities that would fit their content, instead of just blasting it out there.
I would say, reduce the number of options for a better design. But people like Amethyst because of all the options. It's a power user app. Therefore, don't worry about it.
Simple mode by default, option to access advanced mode
That's a good way to handle it. The irony is this makes the code more complex.
Yeah 🤣 but user doesnt care about code
I think showing options raises questions. And even "Pro" users hate questions.
