I gotta say, I'm not against the direction Vitor is going in, but I have no idea why there's no settings in Amethyst. User control should be the norm in Nostr.

I didn't agree with the OnlyZaps feature but I still respected how it was rolled out in the TestFlight version first and then only as an opt in.

That's how you introduce experimental new features, give users a choice.

In the end that's literally all we are asking for. He made nip95 optional there is no reason he can't do the same and make nip94 optional

Yup agreed. The lack of user control in Amethyst is a letdown and it will eventually lead to forks especially when you can't even turn off features that aren't backwards compatible with other clients. Or the community will just contribute more to development of Plebstr instead.

I find it ironic the main iOS client is way more customisable than the Android one. It's usually the other way around!

Srsly it's closed source? Huh I guess I just assumed a Nostr client would be open source so I didn't even check. My bad.
