I uninstalled Primal over a month ago. It's been lame for too long. After keeping it installed and trying to like it as a backup client for ten months, it was time to say goodbye. What went down? The inclusion of crypto wallets?

They've been using crypto libraries, while marketing themselves as a Bitcoin app, yes, and it sort of bubbled up, due to an attack on the library.

Primal web repo hasn't moved in 6 months, not even a bug-fix, but they rolled back this particular commit, last night. šŸ˜…

Their whole "Bitcoin Nostr" schtick always rubbed me the wrong way, anyway, as Nostr isn't supposed to just be for Bitcoiners, and they turned Nostr into a feeder for Strike KYC, but whatever.

Oh wow! I missed that. That sounds very hypocritical. And I agree—I've said it time and time again—if Nostr is only for Bitcoiners, it's dead in the water. But deceptive marketing is not the way. Thanks for the heads up!

I say let the poor marketing continue. Could be a great way to help them dig their own gravešŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø.

I'm a Monero guy right after Bitcoin Guy

meh

Primal is obviously the Apple of nostr.

centralized 3rd parties are security holes blah blah
