nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg, you appear to be accidentally swapping out entire URLs that contain npub addresses, rather than only when they're listed alone or with the nostr: prefix. It's probably an error in your regex, but this makes it hard for your users to find out about other apps by following hyperlinks they see in their Primal feed. Also, I often do this to share some particular information displayed on the other app, and if you swap out the links, then the readers can't see what I intended.

Here, two examples from Jumble and Lumina.

This is also weird UX, where I use a partial address as an example of the format, and you try to swap it out and return an error. If you can't find an address, just leave it as-is, don't alter it, please.

They do all kinds of dumb shit at primal because of their stupid cached relay idea.

All in the name of PeRfOrMAncE

so much for microapps and user choice

Apparently, they were pressured to do this. 🤷🏻‍♀️

But it's a bug, not a feature, to me.

Bug indeed.

Get pressured into to stupid ideas, get stupid results.

Garbage in, garbage out.
