 I don't know how or where to report bugs. So here I send a message and just tag you  nostr:npub16... 
 The fix is on the way. 
 LOL #primal has finally given up on me!

It is no longer working on my phone! It kept crashing on... 
 If you are on Android, can you try the latest 1.0.4 build?  
 Primal for iOS has multiple account support. I didn't know that. Primal for Android does not have... 
 It's on the nice to have list for the next release. The must have list has few major features we are currently working and focusing on; so it's probably going to be after the next release. 
 Thanks for the feedback.

1) You can reorder the feeds in Settings->Feeds screen; The first feed is the default one.

2) It used to work like Twitter, but we had some gap issues and this was the compromise we had to make. At some point after v2 release we might revisit the implementation and try to improve it. 
 Is it possible to get a primal NIP05 with nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaep... 
 Yes. Contact @Marko.  
 What’s the go-to URL you share for nostr-pilling folks?

The current moment is Nostr’s callin... 
 Try primal.net. 
 You can change the default feed in the web app:  Go to Settings -> Home Feeds, and then drag & drop the desired default feed on top of the list. We plan to support this as well on Android at some point in the future, but not sure when exactly. 
 Please give a warm #Nostr welcome to Vik! He was purple pilled at @BTCPrague and is looking to connect with more nostriches.

 We don't yet clear the cache. That's probably eating all the space. We'll look into it, thanks for bringing up this topic! 
 I cant tell if I'm dying from allergies. Or if I'm actually getting sick. 
 My daughter had allergies and it stopped when we cut out diary products.  
 NIP96 clearly defines (and by the way, with the consensus of many people) the basics for any medi... 
 Is there some kind of metadata about the blob in blossom? If not, is it even possible as an extension on the protocol?

It is very useful for clients to understand the data before downloading the actual data. One good example would be image resolution so apps can prepare the layout properly before image is loaded. This helps with performance and cleaner ux. 
 Thanks. It looks like NIP-94 can be used with any upload server. @Vitor Pamplona I see that Amethyst supports NIP-94, does this mean that you are publishing k:1063 events for uploaded files? And do you query for the files metadata when parsing urls from notes? 
 NIP-92 (imeta tag) is actually what I was looking for. Thanks! 
 What about Primal Android? I remember seeing some PRs for accessibility Strings. 

Is the grading subjective or did you use some test case or something? 
 I don’t understand how the crypto community trusts Telegram which is closed source, has substan... 
 Do you know which FOSS relays support NIP-29? 
 I really enjoyed listening CitadelDispatch EP125 with  @hzrd149 and  @Stuart Bowman. Thanks for sharing your experience and ideas. What is the current status of the Nostr Discord project you were talking about in the show? 
 Great! Looking forward to the release. If you need private alpha community testers, let me know. I'm willing to spend extra time setting up the tools if necessary; and the community memebrs are devs. 
 I'm reporting nostr:npub14h23jzlyvumks4rvrz6ktk36dxfyru8qdf679k7q8uvxv0gm0vnsyqe2sh for SPAM.

 Primal supports 1984 events on Android on both notes and users. On other platforms I'm not sure what is the status of implementation.  
 On Primal Android: Open side menu, go to Settings, go to Wallet, uncheck Use Primal wallet and Connect Mutiny Wallet appears. Tap the button and follow instructions. 
 You can download the APK from:
https://github.com/PrimalHQ/primal-android-app/releases

You could also setup Obtainium for fetching updates in the future. At some point we'll add f-droid support as well. 
 What's happening? Can you DM me with the details? 
 Alby and Mutiny through NWC and Primal Wallet integrated directly in the app. 
 Yes, it's on the list. It will be implemented soon.  
 I think you need to contact support for that.  
 There is a known issue on Android when syncing. We'll fix it soon. 
 It will be possible in the next release. 
 You can DM  @primal 
 @idsera helped a lot with testing and found many improvements opportunities in the app. Maybe we could prioritise this a bit more. 
 Damus does not hint the user if it fails to send a note and it is very confusing when it happens.... 
 What about if bitcoin goes down? Should the customer send more sats to avoid under spending? 
 Can you try without "lightning:" prefix? We improved text/scan recognition last week. It will be available in the next release. 
 When I open primal it updates my feed with about 20 new notes and then below that are older cache... 
 Which platform and which feed? 
 okay... i used primal to update my bio description... but now i see the edit switched my name for... 
 What do you mean by not seeing replies on Primal iOS? There is Latest with Replies feed which you can use to see all notes on the home screen. 

And if you set it to be the first feed in the Feeds Settings it will be the default feed when app opens.

 Dreams are the language of the subconscious. It can be learned like a foreign language.  
 We have released the patch for this. Please update to 0.90.2 build.

 Test. 
 How can I ensure that my relationships become an enduring source of happiness for all involved? 
 Happiness comes from the inside as consequence of being aligned with your true self. Align yourself with your true self and help others do the same.

 Primal Android app reads the relays from the content field of the contacts nostr event. I have just checked and both your and @Piriya ⚡🟧's contacts list have empty "content" fields. Because of that the app doesn't know where to post the notes and shows the error.

Can you check if you have published your relays list on other client?

 Photo viewer is yet to be implemented. Images get cropped in the feed if they can't fit properly. 
 On F-Droid too?

(for those running AOSP without Google Play Services) 
 F-Droid is coming shortly after Google Play. 
 Nice! Thanks you so much and again compliments for the good work 🤙💜

 Tag editor on Android is yet to be done. In the meantime mentions and note tagging works if you manually paste "nostr:note" or "nostr:npub" links in the editor.

 Thanks @Genri 🇨🇺 for the feedback. Stay tuned for the upcoming release. In the meantime you can tag someone if you paste npub of that user in format "nostr:npub". This note was written on Android app - you can click on 3 dots icon on a note and Copy note text to see the raw text.

 Good luck.

 What are you testing? 
 Hello npub1ky9s6hjl46wxcj9gcalhuk4ag2nea9yqufdyp9q9r496fns5g44sw0alex  
 Test  @alex 
 What a great time to be alive witnessing the rise of decentralised internet and a great honour to be able to participate in the making. 
Event not found
 This is because your relays are published with NIP65 which is not supported on Primal Android at the moment. We currently fetch the relays from contacts list event. 
Event not found
 Using Primal Web or Primal iOS you could set your relays in Settings -> Network. Open Network settings (apps might prepopulate with some popular relays) and make a change to the list so update gets triggered. This does not make changes to your NIP65 relays. Afterwards it should work. 

I hope other apps are not clearing relays from contacts list when using NIP65. 

Anyways we plan soon to improve relays handling across the entire platform so this is only temporarily. 
Event not found
 Nostr is constantly improving and evolving. That would be the main reason. 

Primal implemented the first relays solution and we are currently in the process of implementing the new relays list across all Primal apps.
