Because details matter! I’m sorry you can’t be bothered to listen to the users. Clearly your opinions are far more important.

Dude... I am here listening to you. I am not bothered at all. Why are you so angry at me all the time?

If I came off as angry, that’s my fault. I am actually just passionate about good UX and it may just be the fact that there have been many instances in which I observed that Amethyst was not causing issues not only for its own users but for other non-Amethyst users as well, such as displaying content in a way that other clients couldn’t render, and they showed up as blank posts. Nostr is young and we are experiencing a wave of new users who are flocking here, and probably the majority of them will be Android users. We should choose to give them the best experience possible, and one that translates across different platforms and apps. I appreciate everything the development and design community here has been building, and that includes you. So if you’re open to UX feedback from someone like me who just downloaded your app for the first time and is comparing it to other apps that I have been using for the past several months, I am more than happy to provide it.

I can see that you like good UX. I just wished you just asked for... say... to increase the space between the text and the image directly... instead of this snarky post:

And since you like good UX, you should know that this is not how you ask for improvements from anyone, anywhere. You ask for empathy, but you didn't offer any of it to those building the product.

That post could have simply been: "Hey Vitor, can we increase the distance here between the text and the image?". That would have created a more productive conversation. But no, your wording wanted to shame me and the "product". Basically a "look how bad this is!". Maybe I deserve it, maybe I don't. But that language goes against what you are preaching all along.

On a last note, Amethyst is here it push for everything, all at once, and move forward as fast as we can. That comes at some UX expense, as you realized, and that's ok. With more help, we can probably offer more UX improvements, but at this time, the majority of the development is still on new features. We are still on version 0.x for a reason. We are not even half the way of an actual product yet.

Points taken. I have been known to snark. But I will endeavor to provide constructive feedback now that I have an actual device to test Android clients on.

BTW I give nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s a lot of shit too. It’s nothing personal! 🫂
