Reality TV Show with you and fiatfaj locked in a house developing a nostr client. Would be lots of fun I reckon lol
having used Gossip nostr:nprofile1qqswuyd9ml6qcxd92h6pleptfrcqucvvjy39vg4wx7mv9wm8kakyujgpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5qy08wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttjv4kxz7fwdehkkmm5v9ex7tnrdaksz9nhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvsn9futa and Coracle nostr:nprofile1qqsf03c2gsmx5ef4c9zmxvlew04gdh7u94afnknp33qvv3c94kvwxgspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3xamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7tpvfkx2tn0wfnszxmhwden5te0vd58y6tnw3cxjmrv9ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5w28rcn in parallel for a while i can say both are severely deficient ( although other clients are probably worse ).
Coracle seems to work mostly as intended by its creator but unfortunately its creator has his head up his ass and totally imposes his own vision with utter disregard for what anybody wants or what NOSTR is supposed to be. Not allowing reposts is only the tip of the iceberg. Simply put if you're on Coracle you are not on NOSTR at all - you're on Coracle. you are seeing no more than HALF of what you should be seeing. the censor in chief nostr:nprofile1qqsf03c2gsmx5ef4c9zmxvlew04gdh7u94afnknp33qvv3c94kvwxgspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3xamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7tpvfkx2tn0wfnszxmhwden5te0vd58y6tnw3cxjmrv9ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5w28rcn decides what you should and should not see.
Gossip is equally bad but in a completely different way. The creator of Gossip nostr:nprofile1qqswuyd9ml6qcxd92h6pleptfrcqucvvjy39vg4wx7mv9wm8kakyujgpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5qy08wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttjv4kxz7fwdehkkmm5v9ex7tnrdaksz9nhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvsn9futa is a more or less reasonable and OK person, but the underlying technology is fundamentally wrong. According to nostr:nprofile1qqswuyd9ml6qcxd92h6pleptfrcqucvvjy39vg4wx7mv9wm8kakyujgpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5qy08wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttjv4kxz7fwdehkkmm5v9ex7tnrdaksz9nhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvsn9futa himself Gossip does not run on Browser technology and as a result is severely handicapped. Things simply do not work as you expect them to work in a browser because you're not in a browser. Frankly this is as unacceptable as what Coracle is doing.
These issues can to some extent be solved by using BOTH clients in parallel, which is what i'm doing. But we need a better solution in the long term.
can anybody suggest a client based on web technology that isn't run by a censorship obsessed fanatical Christian lunatic ?
