i'm glad you recovered your list... this happened to me before and is why i am very skeptical about trying new clients nowadays, the number of times they have nuked lists on me, and i've now added features to my own relay so worst case i can at least recover my old event from my personal relay

my case was even more obscure, my mute list got clobbered by OxChat

Yeah I've always just stuck to Amethyst after seeing people saying it had happened.

amethyst has done well because it got a lot of users and it's one of the early ones... maturity of the code is really important, it takes time to find all the bugs, and ... yeah, unfortunately, i don't want to be a tester on stuff so much after a few disturbing incidents

i have a minor advantage as a relay dev because my userbase is inherently going to be a lot smaller and i test it myself so it will be really solid by the end of this year i think, i mean, like strfry legendary crystalline

it will come the lite fork of amethyst just after the main user base asks for features everytime more and more fashion-ish...

in due course... 🐸 ⌛

that's one of the big advantages of open source... people can make "lite" versions and special purpose and whatnot

it may seem like it is quite a bit of work to whitelabel a source code but actually the refactoring involved in doing so tends to uncover hidden bugs as well, i certainly have found this in the past with my work, the more i make it reusable the more solid it becomes
