Oh, and if you try and request a deletion of a media note on Amethyst, my experience is that it won't be deleted on Olas. To be taken into account π
So, since Olas is now available, the app with the Instagram look, I tested around a bit and wanted to share my not-so-techie experience at this point. I'm especially interested to see the interplay between different clients: Olas, Amethyst and Primal.
Olas has the option of two post types, 'generic' and 'high-quality'. As far as I understand these are different note formats with the latter being optimized for media.
Also Amethyst has the option of posting 'high-quality' media notes under the media tab. The media tab looks quite slick to be honest. These media notes then also appear in Amethyst's media gallery.
Primal, at the time of posting this, doesn't have the option to post or display these new media notes.
Now, if on Olas I post a 'generic post' it appears on Olas (naturally) and on Amethyst and Primal in the normal notes feed.
If I post a 'high-quality' post on Olas it appears on Olas (naturally) and in the media tab as well as your gallery on Amethyst. Not on Primal at this point.
If you post a note under the media tab on Amethyst, it's of the 'high-quality' type and also appears on Olas. Normal note posts on Amethyst or Primal don't appear on Olas.
I stand to be corrected nostr:nprofile1qqs04xzt6ldm9qhs0ctw0t58kf4z57umjzmjg6jywu0seadwtqqc75spz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wshszxnhwden5te0wpuhyctdd9jzuenfv96x5ctx9e3k7mf0dv4ph5 nostr:nprofile1qqsr7acdvhf6we9fch94qwhpy0nza36e3tgrtkpku25ppuu80f69kfqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09uq3wamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e3xzmny9uvn2sfc nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcscpyug And I hope that's helpful, so you don't have to test-mess-up your feeds π

Iβve notice this as well!
That should be the case since 2 days or so. Olas relay actually wasn't deleting before. It could be that you need to clear cache on olas so that it's gone from your app.
I donβt think I can do that on iOS.
Iβll give the delete another shot π€
I don't think you can delete from olas itself rn. My comment was about deleting from Amethyst.
Gotcha. I was trying to delete with Nostur. π΅βπ« so many clients! So many features!
Yes, you can delete posts from Olas
I found it! π
It appears that I have to scroll way down on the follows timeline, back to the post you want to delete, in order to find the 3dot menu on any personal posts.
Problem is, When I go to my profile and click on the image I want to delete, there is no 3dot menu, or hamburger menu to view additional options.
Yes, how to clear cache on an iOS app is the question. And yes, no deletion possible from Olas itself, only from Amethyst where it's now gone already for me π

In the end, I deleted Olas and reinstalled in Testflight. And then voilΓ indeed, the media note I deleted from Amethyst also disappeared on Olas ππ»
Not true. Posts can be deleted from Amethyst or even from Olas (only on the main feed for now) and deletions will latest be taken into account when app cache is cleared.
deletes are a bit 'wonky' on Nostr. you can delete on 99.99% of the relays, but content will still exist on relays that don't support delete and people's cached content locally.
