Nostr Web Client

As you note, l-a-r-g-e FOSS projects. People keep comparing an Android Nostr client with 1000 users with Linux and Bitcoin. Those are two completely different markets.

Smaller projects are more vulnerable to having their ideas stolen because they have no brand protection and a tiny userbase.

Which ideas are you talking about? This is just an Android Nostr client. Whoever wants to steal its ideas won't have to wait until it becomes open-source. Most liekly, they won't even have to reverse-engineer anything, they will just look at it. It's not a big effort to clone any client if there is enough motivation. Which motivation is here? Insert your own ads or what?

Meanwhile, freedom-loving users are tied to Google dependency or forced to fetch some outdated version from Aurora. Nah, I'll use Amethyst from F-Droid instead.

Yes, keep using Amethyst. I think you're not very freedom-oriented, if you're using that Big Ball of Mud containing health data next to a Tiktok feed next to a marketplace next to a magazine reader next to....

Literally all of the Nostr functionality ever invented, from one programmer. LOL

There's more than one criteria for freedom.

On Android, I use Amethyst solely because Nozzle plain sucks, and I don't see any FOSS alternatives as of now. I didn't even open that tiktok-like and marketplace tabs a single time until you mentioned them.

He's putting literally everything into one app (even healthcare data, that was my last straw) and everyone is just downloading it, without a care in the world.

He releases too quickly for anyone to read it and don't hold your breath for test results.

Separation of concerns is a form of safety, after all.

I don't see healthcare data anywhere in the app. Marketplace, Live, Community, Chats, Notifications... Did I miss something? Version 0.85.3.

Anyway, please offer something better at the moment. Something that I won't have to decompile.

Check out Spring browser (https://spring.site/).

Let's you use any Nostr web app on mobile, I prefer Nostrudel.

Laeserin 1y ago

Same. Like Nostrudel a lot.

Android native, rather than PWA?

There isn't anything. I prefer to get involved in Freerse and encourage him to open up. I am willing to wait a bit. I can be patient.

He announced it here. It's the "FHIR Payloads (kind:82)" listed on his GitHub. That stands for Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources.

He's creating a social media app as a gateway to his healthcare/vaccine-pass app (where the Big Money is, and a massive supply of captive users, and not just some plebs zapping).
