He’s having creative differences with #[4], the man in charge of Amethyst.

More like vitor is doing something extremely disruptive to the rest of nostr and he doesn’t seem to care. Oh well, it’s his users who will suffer. I am no longer going to recommmend amethyst and point users to plebstr instead.
Agreed! His responses seem callous. Plebstr works great! Damus is the king!
I do care. That's why I am being disruptive. NIP-94 was discussed for 2 months and merged.
I am not the one refusing to go along with everybody else here...

As an outsider to Nostr development, this is something I’m puzzled by. According to the GitHub page, “[NIPs] should be implemented in at least two clients and one relay — when applicable” before they’re accepted. Yet it seems as though Vitor is the first to implement NIP-94?

Actually, https://filestr.vercel.app/ implemented NIP-94 before Amethyst.

Thank you for the correction. Still, isn’t the order supposed to be implementation in two clients, then acceptance?
Theoretically, yes.
But it doesn't always work like that.
Sometimes a single implementation pushes a NIP acceptance (i.e. Zaps or Repost in Damus), sometimes implementation waits till a NIP merge, even months later!! (I.e. NIP-42 Auth).
Hm. I think the recent unpleasantness could have been avoided if everyone had seen Vitor’s implementation before NIP-94 was accepted. Will would have objected, and there wouldn’t have been consensus to merge the NIP.
Sometimes implementation is important, yes.
But communication is always more important.

That didnt take long for the in fighting to start
Plebstr isn't in a trust worthy app store yet. I only really trust f-droid at this point: https://f-droid.org
I understand recommending the Android client that suits more the way you think nostr micro-social should work, of course.
But building a Damus Android client because you don't agree with Amethyst direction looks like wanting to control yourself where micro-social nostr is going, imho.
Just my opinion, ofc.
