Here you go, from this week, just some evidence of problems we've seen

We also had patchy usage of Amber, Citrine, Flycat, and Yakihonne (signing crashes my browser).
These are from the apps that *usually* work. So, this is the best of web dev. Most of the other apps barely work, at all, or they use so many resources that I can't use them on my machine.
Here is Primal.net web app, when I try to send a reply.
And then it sends, but sometimes says it didn't.

I can barely type something in. And it's been like that for weeks.
These are not obscure features.
this is why i am instituting a new work routine for myself
gonna do 20h/wk (4 x 5h days, ~84h/month) on my paid gig (was previously doing 130) and spending the other free 36h or so - pretty much 3 days a week on nostr and 4 days a week to get money to do 3 days a week on nostr
it's a pay cut but i am well above subsistence on typical dev wages and i'm sure that given time i'll garner a higher paid job because i spend so much of my downtime sharpening my tools
People keep telling me to report stuff, but I'm actually one of the most-prolific reporters.
When someone comes out with a new client and has hardly any users, then I try to be patient and understanding. But some of this stuff has been around for months or even over a year and they just keep pushing new features into the broken stuff and making it more broken.
Each release contains both bug-fixes and new bugs. Nothing every matures, nothing ever gets revamped or refactored.
Like, look at Snort. I started out on there and now it's completely unusable. Literally doesn't work. 🤷♀️
This is a fun one, from Damus. Yes, nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s knows about it. I get these complaints every day, from a different person.
Not a complaint, but would be interesting to know why and why only from your npub?
Not only larserin ‘s npub. I got another person’s message like this and I contacted him he said he totally have no idea. And things disappeared after weeks. I believe it’s damus’s bug
#Amber
Amber had a notable UI bug in which opening the keyboard on my phone would push the whole UI up until the top elements were off-screen.
It could generate a connection string to paste into another app, but the only way (as far as I can tell) that it can read an app-generated connection string is by scanning a QR code. So I can't use it to receive connection strings from other apps or websites on my phone.
Finally, I tried generating a connection string and pasting it into noStrudel, but never got notified asking for signing permission. No indicators popped up in Amber. Either noStrudel never sent the event, or Amber never got it.
the prohibition of localhost networks on browsers is such bs
i'm sure there is a way to get a chrome browser to allow it but i gave up hunting for a way and just used my vpn tunnel and reverse proxy
it is actually easier to do this on mozilla but i hate mozilla so bad... i don't forget the nutscrape days
What screen is pushing the ui up?
Did you changed the default relay?
If you are using a local relay you need to change the notification type to direct connection
And what version of amber you are using free or play?
I am using v1.0.9-free
Did you install ntfy?
No, what is that?
The free version doesn't use play services it uses unified push and for that to work you need to install another app called ntfy
The UI is getting pushed up on "Settings > Default relays" when I try to type in the "Relay" field on the bottom of the screen. The "X" and "Save" buttons at the top get pushed off-screen.
I have changed the default relays. My current relay list on Amber is:
- wss://nostr.thesamecat.io
- wss://greensoul.space
- wss://relay.nsec.app
- wss://theforest.nostr1.com
I am not using a local relay.
#Primal
Primal works okay on my phone *most* of the time. Well enough to use for posting and responding.
It duplicates notifications a ton, especially in replies.
When I post a note as a reply, Primal shows the note in a greyed-out "posting" state...but never leaves that state. If I navigate away and come back the note is there, but there's that moment of uncertainty where I'm not sure whether I'm going to lose the note to the void.
Recently, my "following" feed only goes back about a day, then it shows me a handful of posts from like, a week ago, then nothing. I can't trust it's showing me all posts from my follows.
#ngit
I found out that ngit doesn't let you change the upstream naddr of the repo to which you're opening a proposal; it just tries to detect it automatically.
I recently opened a proposal with ngit, and NostrWorkshop shows the proposal for a few seconds, then shows an error indicating the repo naddr couldn't be found.
nostr:npub15qydau2hjma6ngxkl2cyar74wzyjshvl65za5k5rl69264ar2exs5cyejr responded to my post on it, which I appreciate, so I will be troubleshooting that. Thanks Dan!
#noStrudel
NoStrudel is the most consistent for me, but it moves like molasses. It feels like there are a ton of background processes on the page gumming up my browser. Not the end of the world, because at least the app is usable, but not ideal.
