Ugh. There is a few things that make my nerves grate more than anything else, and one of them is dealing with the endlessly complicated process of installing tooling for certain languages and platforms.

I hate rust, but I gotta hand it to them, rustup is smooth as butter. Setting up go is only a tiny bit more work, mainly setting up the correct paths and environment variables.

But android studio and SDK, is a total dogs breakfast. Python, forget it. Unsurprisingly, android sdk manager uses python.

I spent a full hour trying to get the android sdk working so I could build the linux version but I'm not wasting any more of my time. I need to anyway stop spending so much time looking at nostr and more time building things. If the browser goes molasses mode on me again, GOOD.

As a bitcoin/ln/nostr dev I find it shocking how little my peers are working to make their own experience better, I see you are doing a lot with yana, and I'll install it when all I have to do is change an appimage permissions or install a package with snap. Until then, better I not mess around any further, it's driving me completely barmy.
