Nostr Web Client

I’ve been having an issue from the Damus iOS app that’s been bothering me for a while. When I’m scrolling down my feed, notes have no reactions or replies (1st picture). I have to click on the note and open it in order for the reactions to load (2nd picture). The same issue happens with zaps, I don’t see them in any note until I click on it and Damus decides to download that data. I don’t like this and it’s hindering my experience with this client.

On the other hand, Primal uses their own wallet and doesn’t let me use my own lightning wallet so I also don’t like to switch to that.

What do iOS users have to do to have the best Nostr experience then? What am I missing #asknostr #damus #askdamus

I’ve never had interest in looking at the performance of a note. I just read the content of the note. The number of other people who replied or zapped doesn’t influence my decision to reply or zap.

I figured someone would say that. Sometimes I just want to see how people are reacting to a note with an edgy statement. I want to feel like there are others seeing that note and reacting to it. I feel like regardless of how each of us interact with the notes, it shouldn’t be the default use case to “hide” that information or make the user take that extra step to see information that they could’ve seen at a glance.

It’s not hiding it, your phone just hasn’t cached it yet.

If you want to see the popular notes, use a client that has trending notes, most zapped notes, etc.

I am not the typical user. I don’t care about followers. I don’t care about likes. I care about #zaps !

I follow labels like #asknostr #coffeechain and #plebchain so I see a constant stream of notes from plebs.

I don’t seek engagement, I engage. Relentlessly replying is my mode of operation.

That’s why I added the quotes around the word “hide”. I know it’s not purposefully evil or anything like that. But sounds like something fixable I’m asking to be fixed based on how I use social media. Idk what to answer to the rest of the note, congratulations (?)

Yeah, use primal. It has a backend doing all the work you want. Mysterious magic behind the curtain. There was an interesting back and forth between primal dev and Damus dev yesterday that got heated. You can read the nuances of using a client with a backend.

Sent you a DM about said back and forth.

But the number of other people who replied at least would influence your decision of whether to open the thread checking for replies

This happens to me on Damus. I figure it’s a bug that’ll ironed out soon enough

Radical 1y ago

Does it happen regardless of the platform or if the user is subscribed to the purple plan? I was hoping it would be fixed soon but I’ve been reading about so many people having good experiences with Damus specially after Notedeck was released that it’s been bothering me being the only one with a problem hahah. I want to love it too!

I haven’t noticed if that made any difference. I’m playing with Primal too, but Damus just seems easier to find things in

I guess I haven’t transferred enough of my social media presence to Nostr so I just open it to read notes of people I’m interested in the space. I don’t follow hashtags, that would be my next step. For now, I just want to see what some people say and how people react to that. I do need more people to follow tbh

You def have to follow people and hashtags and mute the dicks and awful hashtags and your feed will improve really quickly
