Subnostr

Hard question. I use many clients for different purposes. All around client on desktop is a web client: #noStrudel

Android would be #Amethyst.

Some close runners up would be #Coracle and #Primal on the web and #Coracle and #Yakihonne on Android.

Then there are clients I use for specific things, like #0xChat, #Olas, #Flotilla, and #Fountain, so it's hard to pick a "favorite" for those.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

Here are my take on them:

noStrudel doesn't work for me. The UI is unnecessarily complicated or I couldn't figure it out. My feed looks empty. I believe, my default any client should show you the feed of the people you're following. #noStrudel fails in that respect. The UI is cluttered with settings and they are scattered.

I am using nostr:npub142gywvjkq0dv6nupggyn2euhx4nduwc7yz5f24ah9rpmunr2s39se3xrj0 on Android and it just works fine. The UI could be better though.

#Coracle is okay-ish. Though UI could be better.

I like the UI of #Primal the best. It's smooth and modern. I think it's the best implementation of #Nostr UI-wise. Though it has its shortcomings. And that's why I'm on the lookout for a better alternative.

My first interaction with #Yakihonne wasn't great. Somehow the UI didn't seem simple enough. But now after your recommendation, I gave it a second go. With a few tweaks, I like it better. It loads images and contents fast. The UI is fluid. I like it so far. I'll keep using it.

Thanks for the recommendations.

Not the biggest fan of some of the UI's above myself, though I have never taken much issue with Amethyst.

You are absolutely right that Primal has the best UI, but I think they also have a paid team with VC backing. The devs behind all of these clients are doing great things to push this protocol forward.

Taking has definitely come a long way since I first used it. I really should use it more. I just keep going back to Amethyst because I am more familiar with it.

Amethyst has been kinda slow for me compared to Primal and Yakihonne. Did you experience any such issue?
