frustrated enough with nostr clients that i want to create my own
Discussion
Do it!
What’s wrong with Damus?
No zap notes capability.
It runs like syrup
Not for me. Are you on an old gen device?
only ever used it on a Iphone 13. Every app update
has left the performance of Damus worse in my personal experience.
Weird… Damus seems to be one of the only Nostr mobile apps that is very focused on performance.
What performance issues are you seeing specifically?
Realmente de todos os clientes o Amethyst é de longe o melhor. Se conseguisse replicar a experiência do Amethyst na web seria o ideal.
What is frustrating about them? And what would you like to do Jack? :)
Let's go, Jack!
Doooo Eeeet
Plenty of room for a diverse ecosystem
Do it!
PLEASE BRING BACK TWITTER AS A NOSTR CLIENT.
NITTER!
Nitter already exists https://github.com/zedeus/nitter
SHAZBAT
Hell yeah 🤘
Do it.
That would be epic. Please do!
LFG JDog
Competition is still good here.
Please think about communities and long-form.
Amethyst has been a great experience.
I have one coming out soon that I believe will onboard the masses. It offers something novel that none of the other clients do.
Where can we follow the updates ?
You won't be able to avoid hearing about it once it's live. There's not that many nostr clients to begin with and this one will be controversial.
You can follow me but I'm going to turn this Npub into a pseudo meme account eventually once I get done using Rana to farm my NPub for professional speech. Almost a month into farming npub1danksw00ps*
👀 with a gif button right?

Maybe search Nostr media servers for gifs...
Im there too. Damus is driving me nuts hanging when I look at a profile.
I love #damus. I am Purple to the bone. But this happens (less frequently these days) when I follow a new npub. Must remember npub handle, exit app, re-enter, search npub, hope I got it right, follow, welcome, take a gummie, try to chill. It’s trying. Very trying!
Weird… nostr:npub1zafcms4xya5ap9zr7xxr0jlrtrattwlesytn2s42030lzu0dwlzqpd26k5 have you seen this before?
nostr:npub16eumpaxffppswucpeysysrya9uk39j06d5gr2tsnf6cupq3f4jdqyft6jc why do you exit the app?
What happens the first time you enter a npub if you dont exit the app?
Screen freeze. No other option but to exit the app. Reenter and search the npub, follow, welcome, repost… kinda my thing, to keep #nostr weird.
Do you receive a crash send logs prompt?
No. It’s odd. Just frozen screen as soon as I land on the pre-page, where you see the bar (on mobile only, never pc) to SEE PROFILE PAGE. I never can go to full pfp cause frozen screen. I must say that it is frankly less worth your time and attention than other npub issues.
I truly appreciate your attention.
Ditto here on what she’s experiencing. Hanging when glancing at a profile. Only option is to kill the app and restart.
Can yall tag me when the 1.10 appstore update comes out to check of profile hang is still happening?
Adding placeholder issue to track https://github.com/damus-io/damus/issues/2500

Yes! Thank you so much for your attention to detail and quality.

The world is imperfect, but we're progressing and empowering users
Im gonna keep working on corny chat, a nostr enabled client with user personalizations, custom room settings and no doom scrolling
Hold on, is it clients or relays?
I fully support this endeavor.
Oops!
nostr:note1l2679k6j79hy248usgtrf3cm3e9jmmxwu5q2nzm0wzw3t9m3hxuqzwkp8g
It didn't work out last time, doubt it will work out this time either
Any chance you can give all Square merchants a Nostr account? 😁
Let's start with allowing them to accept bitcoin payments 👀
Boa! vai que cola !
Do it.
Include emojis and Gifs!
😂 Do it! I want to be on your team.
I'm frustrated enough to want to learn how to code so I can make the ReplyGuy disappear.
Any suggestions on where to start?
Let a thousand flowers bloom 🤙🏼
Do it Brother - call it Swatter...
If you need testers...
Just call it Twitter but run it on the Nostr protocol 😏
That's the spirit 💪
Do it!
Open source?
i keep trying to commit to only using nostr and it keeps not working right
What do you have issues with?
Messageboard client, right? 👀👀👀
Great idea!
scratch the itch
lmao my client fucked up the gif
With a la Insta filters?

This is the power of open source…
Each person sees a problem they want to solve, should they go and build it, the whole network benefits
Long-term it’s unstoppable
Love it
👀👀👀
Reminds me of CashApp for some reason...
great!
looking forward to censorship resulting in mass casualties... just like yer ole twitter🥱👮♂️🚔
strapped in and waiting...
Honestly it's just fun to write clients. The more the merrier.
Do it 🚀
do it
but ditto is good https://ditto.pub/
J'ai trouvé sa présentation à Riga très bien depuis j'ai pas eu le temps d'y retourner, la sphère @ditto me semble la plus complète et porteuse de création d'outils ... Elle va au delà de l'on puisse imaginer... Je ne sais pas s'il s'en rendait compte tout y est tel que j'entends et concevrait les outils open-source dans l'été de la décentralisation tout en s'articulant... Revisionnez sa présentation s'il vous plaît
Yes but nostr:npub1q3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnws6cd26p needs to make mobile app 😏

Lol yeah
I feel your pain when opening one of them… like this: 
How can I help
On peut vous soumettre des idées !? Ce serait sur l'aspect technique plutôt de votre part.. Puis en presque 2vand d'observation sur nostr j'ai des idées d'outils à mettre en place sur le bien-être en ligne échanges de pratiques, interagir sainement en ligne, sur les droits individuels, travail, sociétés, conditions et droits du travail, adaptation travailler sur des projets, accompagner certains sur leurs idées à valider... Voire le mal-être, cette sensation chez certains de sentir seul et perdu souvent ressenti chez la plupart des individus et finissent par se refléter sur des notes de manière redonnnante... Si je peux mettre un espace qui permettrait d'aiguiller certains confrontés à ces types se situations qu'ils soient en emploi ou pas.. 'ou veulent tout simplement changer d' orientations....

ah shit, here we go again.
Fork amethyst
Me too
wen native client
I don't use native anyway, I just wish Coracle was better
it is.
All the devs behind #nostr clients want them to be better. As users, most of us ae rooting for you all.l to make it better. What are the biggest constraints?
Time, talent, focus, the usual culprits
Usual culprits 💯
Boils down to big $$$$ then right?
It can provide the breathing room for time, acquiring good talent, enabling space to focus. Angel investors and grants can provide the means for R&D to produce a good MVP, but nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m youve obv done this before. The talent is out there clearly. The projects are live and being worked on continuously. Is that what these projects frustrating you are missing?
Coracle is always moving forward nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn
You are the right guy for that
Get off ios and get amethyst. Stop ignoring the superior client because you friend didn't create it. I see this a lot on the space
Please make a function that lets me explode the phone of retards on here I don’t like.
So do it
Please!
Get in the arena! Fork Damus. Take it to the next level. 😎⚛️
do it 🙌
You haven't tried Openvibe.
You should call it “Shitter”
A) you promise for it to no be shitter then the rest
B) it’s great for checking in on while you’re on the shitter
C) obvious twitter reference

Un plaisir Diyana ..essayez de bien définir votre projet er éventuellement être source de création d'outils pour les ux .. sincèrement il y a de quoi être force de proposition. Il y a plein de nostriches qui évoluent dans votre univers et proposent leurs services également sur youtube... pensez-y le temps passent vite jour après jour sans qu'on s'en apercoive. Celles dont je rappelle après 2022 elles ont poursuivi leurs activités hors nostr et de temps en temps elles font un biais sur le protocole

Ruby on Rails again?

No thanks, we don’t want twitter 1.0 again.

What’s your top frustration?
It all comes full circle

One app to rule them all?

How will it be different?
Hey Jack, can you create a client that will automatically ban those hell threads?
Can we have that phone you were talking about to go with it?
We’re so close…
👀👁👀
Oh please no, please. For the sake of $SQ employees and shareholders, please no.
You haven’t even hit your first anniversary as full time Block employee.
Oh damn!
I have been working on one; looking at building social graphs and the ability to "build your own algorithm". I am planning to use the social graphs in conjunction with AI as well. Happy to help in any way that I can.
I hear Twitter.com might be available.
AGREE! HAPPY TO TEST OR HELP WHERE I CAN 👨💻
Hey Jack, do you happen to know the guys at Talbots? They made Tweetbot… I loved that app… we need to purple pill those guys.
When twitter shut down the independent twitter clients they moved on to make Ivory, a client for mastodon.
I would love to help. Let me know if there are any job openings that I can apply to.
“just setting up my twtstr”
I'm frustrated enough with Nostr that I might quit. The spam & bots are out of control & it just gets worse
Ohhh no he didn’t

Not to throw shade to indie devs (they are doing an outstanding unpaid job), but this will probably bootstrap development to an even higher standard!
If you do Jack, please keep it FOSS! Community will benefit as a whole
It’d be kinda hilarious if you name it something like TWITR now that musk warped everything with his X obsession
Yes, one with a design more similar to Twitter.
Dude it's a Skynet-level bot attack 😳
Same here:

PLEASE!
Maybe building your own will be like finding the holy grail of crypto.
Go jack go!!
Excited to see what you come up with! Make a killer app of nostr!
What frustrates me is, I see this note has 193 replies as of now and I can only see 17 of them (incl. replies to replies).
Join the club. 😂
Guess you can try https://nostrx.xyz/
Love to chat how we can make it better!
you're using the wrong client sir. The one you're using is a twitter clone, at best and it doesn't even support most of the "other stuff" natively.
everyone will get the nostr they deserve based on the client(s) they use.
👀
#[2] You can try #[3] . There is a GIF button, and you can directly zap the post by connecting to the Alby wallet. Freerse is open source. It loads very quickly. 😂
Open sourced when?
Three weeks ago
Flutter gang
Yes

nostr:npub129z0az8lgffuvsywazww07hx75qas3veh3dazsq56z8y39v86khs2uy5gm does #Freerse do AUTH?
I didn't understand what you said? 👀
NIP-42 client identification, so that I can use my favorite relays with it.
Sorry, nip42 is not implemented yet.
Darn it. 😭 I've been waiting for months, man. Freerse was the best Android app.
I'm sorry, after more than a year of development of Freerse, my development funds are almost gone. I have spent a lot of time raising funds recently. I have met many investors. I also applied for funds from #[4], but OpenSats has not reviewed the results yet. So the development progress during this period is very slow. Thank you for your love for Freerse.
This is cool
Just don't sell it to Elon FGS
This felling is just what move nostr dev community into building more libs and clients
nostr:note1l2679k6j79hy248usgtrf3cm3e9jmmxwu5q2nzm0wzw3t9m3hxuqzwkp8g
Wonder if you could tie in your new nostr client with cash app?
Somehow onboarding majority of cash app users to Nostr ?
Cash app could do a nostr client?
Wonder if the 2 could be integrated together Nostr and cash app?
PLEASEEEE
Can't wait
what frustrated you the most?
for starters, your dickhead extension notification that I can't get rid of from the settings menu.
Hey, which one you can't get rid of?
Call it twittstr

I dare you Jack! 😁
Please don’t. I just left BlueSky because the Twitter refugees invaded with all their ableist mentally ill bulkshit. I don’t want another Twitter or BlueSky. You could do far more funding the projects that are out there equally and see which one comes out ahead of the others.
Epic times ahead 🔥

Would love to help with UX Design. Working Nostr general UX already.
Can so relate. I started working on a browser-extension / app hybrid … the challenges I keep coming back to are secure portability & faster relays with relevant posts. All seem to have a cost … but there’s gotta be a way.
Yes please
Please bring LNURL static addresses to CashApp first. Current Bitcoin CashApp UX is not fit for the masses. You should emulate what Strike does. LNURL for everybody. Abstract USD - BTC conversions.
Do you mean create by typing or create by paying?
Pleasseeeeee. It's very frustrating.
O yes!
Do it
Today was the worst fucking day ever
Same here, already building one.
I will not stop until everyone is a developer of a nostr client or a system administrator supporting them, or memer marketing them, or a writer documenting them, etc.
Do it ! 👻
So why don't you stop bitching about it and just do it?
Full circle!
We're excited to see what you build 🧡
Long form write up?
This would basically be twitter (the idea) done right. It would start at the bottom of the client list, but with Jack's experience, it could rise to the top. Others internally and externally would take note. Competition is good. Everything converges.
nostr:note1l2679k6j79hy248usgtrf3cm3e9jmmxwu5q2nzm0wzw3t9m3hxuqzwkp8g
hm why not? Do it! I would love to see what you gonna make of it.
There can never be enough Nostr clients
I always figured you would. I look forward to something truly excellent.
I can make the logo :) behance.net/lularocha
Been all in #Bitcoin and #Nostr even more now that Twitter/X was blocked here in Brazil. Would love to work in the space!
