is snort still mostly unusable or is it just me?
Discussion
I have had struggles too.
It is my primary client. I have no issues.
it's been my primary client for 5-6 months. i miss the yellow accents 😉 the past week or so though, i can't use it. i find myself using snort.semisol.dev more than snort.social.
The change to the gossip model did cause some pretty serious performance issues. They seem to be improving with time.
PWAs seem to be the future to me. I’ve got one in the oven, and there are already some really good ones (iris, snort, primal, et al.)
I honestly believe WASM will be the long term solution to many issues. Current gen PWAs run on whatever JavaScript engine the browser provides, which is destined to be a bit slower, just by its nature. WASM will give devs the ability to provide that native experience on all platforms, which solves app stores, performance issues, etc. It also means clients that can be hosted anywhere as countries block domains, etc this providing even more censorship resistance.
And the day we finally get that perfect FOSS phone, those clients will be gtg. 😉 From where I stand, this is the only solution based place to stand.
Poor UX
Me too… I tried to post there a few times and my posts went nowhere.
So I gave up.
Hopefully we can keep Damus going … I tried them all … and Damus is the best. #[3] …. Even a Web version with #zap would be great … I don’t need an Apple iOS app. #[5] #[6] #[7] #[8] #nostr #snort
You could easily get lost when navigating through deep thread as it seems to take you to the top of the feed rather than where you left off.
Still unusable for me unfortunately.
