Notedeck should be insanely fast on any machine, even low end ones.
it's powered by a custom nostr database/relay written in C. nostrdb rivals the performance of strfry, the fastest nostr relay that powers most of the largest nodes.
Notedeck is all natively compiled rust code, not based on web browser tech. Renders directly from the notes in nostrdb virtual memory to your graphics card, zero copy.
It's *impossible* to hit the level of performance notedeck reaches if you are building a nostr app in the browser. it will always be faster than any web-based nostr client.
I took everything I learned from damus iOS to build a new client architecture designed for performance at every layer of the stack.
We're backporting these performance advances to Damus iOS as well, so soon iOS will be as fast as notedeck. notedeck will also be our Damus Android app, it's designed to be mobile first and responsive. In the future it will run on iPadOS as well.
Notedeck out now, so check it out to experience how fast nostr clients can be!
