 Thank you! 

To be fair,  @Vitor Pamplona had the feed marketplace in Amethyst months ago, as did  @hzrd149 in nostrdel. I totally expect this to be a common feature in nostr clients moving forward.  
 That's true. Amazing how nostr clients push each other to improve.  
 LFG 
 Primal 2.0 is just a point in time. Much bigger things are on the horizon for Nostr and Primal. We cover some of that in my recent conversation with  @walker. Thanks for having me on sir. 🫡

 Working on it 🫡  
 Oh yes, this is an android client issue. Sorry about that, we already fixed it for the next update.  
 At long last, Primal 2.0 is here. 

Our team has been working around the clock for many months to reach this milestone. Primal now offers a much more comprehensive view of Nostr, with the following additions: 

- New tab: READS
- New tab: EXPLORE  
- Feed Marketplace 
- Advanced Search 

We also launched Primal Premium. For $7/month, you can get a Primal Name and Nostr Tools for power users. We’ll cover all this in much more detail in the coming days. In the meantime, we invite you to download Primal 2.0, try it out and let us know how you like it. 

Enjoy! 🤙💜

 Yes, you can buy Primal Premium with sats via the web app. For mobile apps, we support in-app purchases only at this time.  
 Thank you! 🫂 

We did this; there should be a Reads tab on the profile screen in all Primal clients. Let me know if it's not showing up for you.  
 Yes in Primal for Android, but not in iOS unfortunately; due to App Store restrictions.  
 Thank you!

 We already support those formats. When you see broken links it means that we couldn't find the event in question. Working on improving that. 🫡  
 The correct syntax is nostr:[noteid]. 

Some clients try to display the embedded events even without the "nostr:" prefix. Maybe Primal should too.  
 True story. 

Primal feeds are now available on Amethyst, Nostrudel, and any other Nostr client that supports DVM feeds. Yeah. We have a functional feed marketplace on Nostr. Probably nothing. 

A lot more to come very soon. 🫡

 We will FAFO way more than any competing network. Probably by an order of magnitude.

 Hey Nostr, please welcome Prince Filip of Serbia. 

I think  @princfilip is the first royal on Nostr, right? 

nostr:note12d503n99deq3v9nt5kvcdrqyphwed7nfw0n8p9ufcf2ezcejhnwq0gvcrj  
 Yes 💯

 Finally on #NOSTR!

 Weird. Are those wallet prompts being displayed in response to an action you are making on Primal? If so, can you tell me the exact steps to reproduce.

 Thanks for reporting this  @Vitor Pamplona. Strange, we were not able to reproduce this. Everything from our media server loads quickly for us from all nostr clients we tried. I believe you and others who reported this, that there's an issue, just can't repro it. Btw, we are not rate limiting anything on the media server and we are not hitting the ceiling in terms of bandwidth. 

Last night we made a change in the way we work with our CDN, based on our feedback. This might fix the issue you reported. Please let us know if it works better now.

 Which Nostr Android client still doesn't have login with Amber? 
 Fair criticism; we'll implement Amber support for the next Android build. 🫡

 We don’t support push notifications in Primal yet. Planning to add this in a future release.

 Expected Primal performance is shown in the clip below. If you are experiencing slower performance, please let us know: 

1. Which Primal app you are using (web/iOS/android) 

2. Which browser / OS you are using 

3. Anything else you think might be relevant with your setup 

Thank you for the feedback!

 Any CSAM content uploaded to Primal's servers is removed immediately upon discovery. You can report CSAM content to us by DMing the main  @primal account.  
 This was recorded using Chrome on Mac OS. If things are slow for you, could you please respond to the three questions in my note?  
 Okay, great to hear!

 Both web and mobile apps should be fast now. They definitely are for me and the rest of our team (geographically distributed). If you are experiencing slowness, we'll need to investigate.  @Marko will reach out to help troubleshoot.

 Yes, absolutely. Which handle would you like?  
 Yes of course. What's your desired handle?  
 Primal for iOS build 1.9.90 has just been released. This build should resolve the performance / connectivity issues experienced by many Primal iOS users recently. If you were affected, please confirm that the new build indeed resolves these issues. 

There are no new features in this release. We are preparing a massive upgrade with Primal 2.0 in October. 💜☀️ 
 If you are on Primal TestFlight, please note that we just rolled out a build that makes our iOS app much more performant and reliable. If testing goes well, we aim to release these improvements early next week. 

Apologies to those who wish to participate in beta testing; our TestFlight is not public at the moment. We work closely with our testers and don’t have the bandwidth to expand the group at this time. With a bit of luck, an improved build will be live soon. Thanks for your patience! 
 Feed marketplace is coming with the full Primal 2.0 release in October.  
 A note to all Primal users. We are working hard on making Primal much faster and more reliable. We already deployed a more performant web app. Please let us know if it works well for you. 

Major updates to all Primal clients are in the works. Thanks for your patience, it will be worth the wait. 🫡 
 The fix was on the caching service side. We are working on a major upgrade of the web app for Primal 2.0. The public repo will be updated when we launch (in 2-3 weeks).  
 Our production web app is main on github. The performance fix was in the caching service.

 Thanks for the feedback; never hesitate to send bug reports! We are aware of this; it's actually a connectivity issue with the iOS app. The fix will be included in the next release. In the meantime the workaround is to restart the app. Sorry about the inconvenience!  
 i’ve lost track of what color pill people are supposed to take. 
 purple == nostr 
white == wagmi  
 i hope it’s just me

but primal is now completely unusable for me due to slowness. web and all. 
 All systems are operational. Which Primal client are you using (web/iOS/android)?
