I hear you. Media is a huge consumer of bandwidth, especially with PFPs and gifs. Video is also not small. Video part I am already working on, but the images we serve are still oversized for the display they are on. 🐶🐾🫡

I think we can get rid of media entirely. Hide PFPs. Don't need reaction counts. Don't need to load any counts at all really.
That is definitely doable, Nostur already has that mode 🐶🐾🫡
yeah but I don't like the card view ;(
🐶🐾🤔🤔🤔 good point
Fast like Cheetah!

Mobile native app actually knows if it is using cell or wifi, so we could even have an automated config to stop loading media if on cell. Relays are a problem too, since they potentially pull same events from different relays. There is a project that allows you to have a server pull and deduplicate events, and it’s on GitHub 🐶🐾🫡
