After helping new nostrich to onboard and use nostr a little, I understood how bad the whole experience is and how much tribal knowledge is required to even start ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ nostr:note1gul7khmrw7l2wef48r22ly4k7juprntzv6pghvv4zmj2e5pjlmdqfkhfdx

Yeah it's a long way to go
Agreed, the free #nostr experience is worse than 4chan
Crypto people is easiest to onboard.
Do tell
PFP is not saved on a first go, default relays suck and shit not working or downloading, LN addy disappeared after save, restart client redo the thing. Nostore (extension?) needed to delete image! How do you deal with extensions on iPhone Safari? Lightning, WTF is it? So many small frictions and failures even I got impatient. A lot of work to do to make this it’s at least acceptable
Strange
The cell connection was not the best, but we are in JP so not too bad. I suspect client had issues with default relays that are hard coded ffs ðŸ˜
Initial relays have a lot to do with a good initial experience. I’ve seen similar issues in tests and cases where it was all a breeze.
Profile editing IS a major pain - when things don’t save right away. Confusing and annoying.
Thanks for updating nostore btw. Will finally try iOS 18 later today
