Primal is the canary in the coal mine. Itβs good to call them out as the example. And the app sucks. At least on iOS.

I have never lost a canary in any of my coal mines.
I talked to miljan last week and he said hes aware of the concerns. I suggested a degraded experience when the caching relay is down and still let people read from their relays. I think they will need to do it for a good experience unless they can scale their relay somehow and make it more redundant.
I made this in July 2023.
It has turned out more true than I thought 
This was before any of the Primal drama, btw.
So I go Primal Island. If they do something I don't like, I find another island. But I can vote with my feet and find a new island. Seems ok to me.
primal's interface is ugly af
