It’s simpler and I bet more performant.
Snort on mobile safari currently makes my phone hot. Lots of complex rendering. Of course there are other things but every little thing matters.
I could be wrong.

Already looks pretty flat to me? 
So the bubble look was our I initial attempt to look different 😆 but I since toyed with the idea of being more flat and actually designed it. Not sure if nostr:npub1v0lxxxxutpvrelsksy8cdhgfux9l6a42hsj2qzquu2zk7vc9qnkszrqj49 agreed but I feel we need a major snort update and cleanup!
Happy to tackle it.
