I don't use it on anything but my phone.
Mobile

Mobile generally speaking, Snort, and NoStrudel both need to be worked on.
Amethyst is probably the better client there is currently.
Mobile. Still looking for a good Desktop option.
I'm loving ditto.pub
84% of the world is mobile.
Imagine working on nostr for only the 16% who use laptops/desktops for something other than school or gaming...
Desktop nostr makes no sense for adoption, so I don't use it.
Hard truths
You are simply looking at raw numbers, which is a mistake on your end.
Desktop applications allows for far more complicated features and usecases; both in terms of UI and in terms of available compute, important for laying the groundwork and exploring the possibilities within this new paradigm. The share of power-users is far larger among the early adopters, which also impacts the numbers game you hint to on one end, but on the other hand gets into the fact not every type of user is of equal added value (in every moment in time); power users are what bootstraps this thing for the most part.
Case in point: The Damus Notedeck thing is gearing up to be a mayor breakthrough in within the Nostr space; and Gossip in its own way did it before that.
Even 16% of 8 billion is huge number and what about who use both mobile and desktop devices
mobile
Never even used desktop lol
Mobile for most stuff. Long form is easier for me to type on a desktop.
