Wishlist for primal.net (cc nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr).
1. Store profile metadata in local storage; browser should read from that instantly on refresh then issue a fetch in the background to test for updates. A refresh shouldn't do a full refetch every time: it takes forever and slows the whole experience down.
2. Messages that were marked resurface as unread. It's annoying and makes me want to write a firefox plugin to hide the message button entirely.
3. In Settings>Appearance, allow a minimal mode where the primary nav can be reduced to only icons (no text) and font-size for the entire site can be made larger.
Thanks for the feedback.
1. Yes, we are looking into ways to speed up the initial load, as well as the app in general. Storing more data locally will be a part of the solution.
2. Are you able to repro this reliably? If so, we'll reach out over DMs to get more info.
3. Good idea. We are considering something along these lines for our next update.
