Totally blown away with speed and interface of #gossip - a #rust based #nostr client for #Linux #Mac and #Windows (I guess) ..

Testing on a 2009 Desktop running #Debian - blazing fast even on an old machine

Here is the response from #Gossip ..

It is so much better than struggling with Browsers on older machines ... feels like #Amethyst on #Android ..

Gossip has the most terrible and slowest GUI. Overall, this situation is common for all applications written in Rust.

When was the last time you tried ? .. saying cuz I did around four months back .. shelved it for it was not fully baked ..

Tried again um yesterday .. o my my .. it is still alpha from features standpoint ( vs Amethyst) but it rocks my fifteen years desktop ..

As regards to your point on #rust apps .. it takes time to finesse rust .. but whatever it does , it is perfect and it does it like a bullet train .. I love rust not for great UI .. I do for it is most efficient language ever .. after C but C has lot more gotchas

If your Rust application is slow, you aren't writing or compiling it correctly, and that is the hard truth.
