Aw, why’s that with other options available?

No particular reason, except that I'm enjoying the options. I was using Amethyst, which I don't have a problem with and, with the addition of my npub/nsec, I can try Primal.

My only beef so far with Primal is that, in the web version of Primal, I can zap sats, but not in the Android version, even though I have my Alby node correctly configured and connected. It always wants me to use the Primal wallet.

Maybe after a few months, I'll move on to "the next big client" and give it a go.

Hmmm. Something must not be connected correctly. I am connected to my Alby Hub wallet on Primal Android and have no issues zapping. Of course, I also never set up a Primal wallet...

Either way. Primal is fine as an "I also use..." type of app, but I would make sure you are also utilizing other clients. I have a hard time even referring to Primal as a client, since some of the things clients are intended to do are offloaded to their caching server instead. You don't read from your selected relays at all, for instance, and you are relying on their server to verify signatures rather than that being done locally on your device.

Good got it to work, thanks.

And, thanks for the insight. Stoll new to this and knowing that (about Primal) helps in the decision making process.
