The problem is that there increasingly is a lack of good clients... Amethyst sucks my battery if I forget too kill it and the notifications/mention tab is broken. Most others on Android are abandoned. And there are no good Linux desktop apps at all... 😞

Nozzle was the only one that worked really well but it's abandoned
for android you can take a look at nostr:nprofile1qqszpxr0hql8whvk6xyv5hya7yxwd4snur4hu4mg5rctz2ehekkzrvc64twc2 . The point Miljan makes here does stand, it takes a lot to get a reliable polished product.
Amethyst took a big hit in terms of reliability after their big recent overhaul but i expect things to improve over time (as they already have).
I'd like a native app. Amethyst used to work well but it has always drained battery. Nozzle didn't. Ironically, fedilab seems to work about the best if your account lis tied to a ditto server.
YakiHonne has an android app.....
Ah, not in Fdroid. But it requires an account. Not amber
???
You can download the apk here if need be:

Yes, you can use amber, where did you get the notion you could not?
It asks for a account. Probably for a Wallet. 
You nailed it. Android (the most censor resistant OS) is abandoned. How's backwards is that? Fixing this.
I am pretty sure that nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq3qamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wd4hk6tcqyprqcf0xst760qet2tglytfay2e3wmvh9asdehpjztkceyh0s5r9cpvx58v, the shipping machine, is actively working on Amethyst, as are the nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqyw8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytfsxyh8jcttd95x7mnwv5hxxmmdqqszpxr0hql8whvk6xyv5hya7yxwd4snur4hu4mg5rctz2ehekkzrvcsuxfmc guys on their excellent client.
As for Primal, we shipped our latest Android release just over a week ago. Not fair to say that Android is abandoned by nostr devs.
Abandoned? Are we living in the same world? All I see are new releases for Android clients. Way more than iOS or desktop.
Didn't mean offense. You're an incredibly selfless dev man and an OG. But Amethyst just isn't usable.
Primal is working, has good UX, but is slow and suffers completeness issues. Among other things.
I don't feel the focus is right with Nostr clients, so I'm going to start assembling a client. Been mapping architecture for a few weeks.
We need to solve some things and take this thing mainstream.
Appreciate both your work. All devs btw.👏
What's going on in your notifications? That should work quite well 🤔
Besides draining battery I have this weird issue where the bell icon doesn't always show my recent notifications. They come back for a while when a new one appears.
Look, it is back
I can no longer see your mention, only older ones are there. Sometimes it goes even further back. I see the recent ones fine in other clients
