‚Easy to implement‘ 😉

A few days ago I recommended joinstr as an option next to Joinmarket/Jam to a friend.

He did not even managed to be successful in downloading (and installing as plugin in Electrum) it from gitlab.

That is what devs should have in mind. Clueless users.

Give them a download-button and a start-button. Then it is finally easy to implement and use. And then the support and the users will come.

Electrum plugin is not updated since months. I was working on mobile apps.

Things would get better with time. Need more contributors.

I would like to at least be helpful with testing.

The first thing that happens when opening: Android APK: Joinstr wants to control OpenVPN and intercept all network traffic‘

Normal uneducated people (like me) would not trust this as they do not understand enough and might think this setting messes up their phone VPN settings.

It will be fixed in the next version. Tor will also be added for users that do not want to use VPN.

So that means testing it now could/would fuck up phones/other apps VPN settings?

It won't fuck up VPN settings. There were 2 warnings and one of them will be removed in next version.

All these apps in the screenshot work in the same way.
