I really want to love #amethyst but the UX is frustrating every day. #primal is nicer but just for reading and feature-lacking. Typing this on #plebstr, which is a lot more polished, but not available on #fdroid, so no #foss. Anyway, the best stopgap #nostr client I found for #android so far. Thanks #aurorastore!

Open Source always wins in the long run. :)
What's the frustrating part? Let's hope we can fix it :)
Thanks for the heads up. I found #plasma is available thru #obtainium not in #froid yet.
Everytime.
First of all, thank you for your outstanding work on #amethyst. It blows my mind the rate of updates you're pushing to #froid. Now, mind you, I use mid-range, second-hand, rooted #android devices to squeeze the last drop of performance out of them. But still, #amethyst feed scrolling is laggy and sometimes not very responsive on the same setup #primal and #plenstr are not.
Lastly, I know the UI might not be a priority so early on the development stage given the sheer amount of features on #amethyst, but surely it needs to be if even more features are coming.
Having said that, I'm keeping my #amethyst up-to-date to ditch #plebstr for a full #foss #android #nostr client as soon as I some of that issues are taken care of.
