I've been trying Astral some and like it! Sometimes slow loading. A cool feature is that is shows what relays you are seeing messages. I like to see that although it does make the UI busy. For some reason, even when I have some relays in common it does not show them that way. Props (and zaps) to @monlovesmango@astral.ninja

thank you rob! glad you find it useful.

I am currently in the process of completely revamping the relay strategy to be more targeted (kinda frozen with indecision atm), and hopefully make UI less busy as well. in theory the targeted relay strategy should be faster and less data intensive, the hard part will be supporting the legacy relay strategy as well to continue to provide a smooth experience.

I like having a Like ("shaka" icon) and a Zap, but Astral only has Zap. The use case is if I am on a browser without a LN connection. Also, not sure embed, repost, and quote are all needed as icons - maybe some way to consolidate functions.
