I'll say it again, even though I've said it a thousand times:
nostr:npub1acg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeyse9p35c 's Gossip client is the best cross platform desktop Nostr client released right now.

Is there a download to try
Yes.

It’s also in homebrew.
I’m looking for a good setup guide right now.
Any plans for a marketing site?
You'd need to ask Michael. I don't know that he's pushed it really hard, but it really needs more love. It's a power user tool for sure, but I think it's the best implementation of Gossip protocol I've seen, and it has the benefit of being a real *native* application, not just a wrapper around JS, so it's fast.

I didn't know it's in Brew. It's been my desktop client for about a week.
Someone told me it was. I haven't verified. I always clone and build myself. They also said something about winget and chocolatey.
I searched and couldn't find it.
I found the homebrew thing.
nostr:npub1p93204359p3f2httnwktq69a0662p25gcpfv0ec9pfykc82u4y2sufcpwu has submitted it and it’s waiting for review.
Thanks btw nostr:npub1p93204359p3f2httnwktq69a0662p25gcpfv0ec9pfykc82u4y2sufcpwu that’s going to save me time in the future.
You can install it now with ffmpeg support from the homebrew tap in the link from my profile.
On windows you can install it from my scoop bucket, which provides a “gossip” command to run from the command line. That’s also waiting on review to get in the public bucket.
homebrew also runs on linux btw :)
Is someone going to submit Damus?
The app is great, egui looks like crap. Reminds me of tkabber which was a good jabber client but on tk. Never used it because of that.
I cannot verify this as I haven't tried the others. Now I feel pressure to make sure this is true. 😅
There will be a setup wizard soon (it is almost finished but has bugs still). You won't need a guide to get setup.
