hey, been using Nostria (android) for two weeks now (during testing), im a newb so mainly focusing on UX/UI, here's my takeaways:

- media previews & playing/interaction is exceptional, really nicely embedded, slick.

- the opaque menus are tidy (premium feel)

- pfp, event loading is super fast, the home feed feels really slick and approachable

- it feels very stable and reliable, never crashed in two weeks!!!!!

- there's an overwhelming choice of menus/3 dots, which end up looking a bit messy/confusing

- some icons/buttons are not intuitive (guessing this is why they need text under some)

- too many options to do the same thing - e.g. '+' (create) should just be on the bottom menu, remove it from anywhere else

Overall, I think an absolute solid 7/10. The back end feels very well built, the UX/UI just needs a tidy up (less is more).

Happy to engage and test more on any aspects of this. Hope the roll out goes well.

Thanks for the feedback! The last 10% of optimization takes 90% of the time, so every little improvement goes a long way to improve the user experience. Will remove the "Create" options from the app menu. Then there will be only two places to create a post, article, etc and that is middle of mobile menu, and on the top of the hamburger menu (top left).

Thanks for the reply, I assume the 'to do' list is fairly long, and people like myself keep adding to it.

I have faith that Nostria will constantly improve. Great start.

Thanks for the reviews well done you are selected as winner.

Please keep using Nostria and giving feedback so it can be improved even more.

Thank you so much, you're very welcome for the reviews 🙏

I am super stoked to be on nostr:nprofile1qqsdr0fnxvmn8hxyz8cwazfm8zu9yt7qmc38ll69nkvsgn8dnej4sxcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7rsy9gd in the early days and want to help with breakdowns like this from my perspective as an artist, label and event producer.

Great breakdown.

Only on Nostr can something like this happen where the dev nostr:nprofile1qqsp0c5gn7aqzqsaqj9p8lgt5yy26vwrsvnzj4rqcg0xn3pl4ra729gppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7ue58rs cares enough to literally fix shit in real time and take suggestions. Bravo to both of you.

100% man, it's so refreshing. The openness, helpfulness and rate at which things develop is inspiring. I even got myself a GitHub account to be a bit more useful, I didn't even know of Github a few months ago.

It makes you want to engage more, be useful and bring something to the party. It's very much a positive space.

For sure. Same here. I have a git hub since one of our companies offers cyber security. Never really used it outside of that until recently.

So far the only thing I don't like about #nostr is the feeling of fear that it may get taken from us all somehow.

I get ya, I don't live in that fear, maybe out of naivety, but hope that its non-centralized structure and community will help it adapt and survive. I'm hopeful 💜
