Primal is a special edge case, in that it is a centralized client. The feed of posts comes from Primal’s servers — that’s why in the recent AWS outage, Primal stopped working entirely.

I specifically want my followers using any client but Primal, because using Primal is essentially anointing them with the permanent power to censor people’s timelines forever (whether willfully, or more likely forced to by regulators and App Store operators). It is recreating the problem of the fediverse, and a centralizing attack on Nostr.

Maybe this is a kook position, but I am on Nostr because I specifically do not want a central authority being able to shape discussions.
