A note to all Primal users. We are working hard on making Primal much faster and more reliable. We already deployed a more performant web app. Please let us know if it works well for you.

Major updates to all Primal clients are in the works. Thanks for your patience, it will be worth the wait. 🫡

Thank you for the update, sir. 🫡

Web app ist 🆒. Android app not so much.

Wen NIP96? 🤔

Please enable #Tor.

You can access the web from tor without any problem and you can use the app over tor without any problem.

Maybe they meant create a .onion address

It's a bad sign for censorship resistance if a client is run by people who are too lazy to put up a .onion address

Wen NIP46? 😉

Today I'm going to try it all day on my computer to test it. Thank you for your work Miljan ⚡

Thanks, the app has been giving me some trouble recently with parts not loading consistently. Enjoy using the app though.

Keep at it brother!

Still my most used client

Had some loading speed issues yesterday and this morning when I wanted tinder the reactions and/or zaps to my posts. Apart from that things are running smoothly.

Good you are working on improving Primal. 👍🏻

Keep building 🔥🔥🔥

Please can you fix the bug where people cant follow their first person. It's the biggest complaint I hear over and over about primal. What we do now is send people over to nostrudel, then tell them to come back to primal. Even that sometimes fails. Its so hard for new users when the client doesnt let them follow anyone, without giving any reason why.

if you can provides steps to reproduce this error, i can try and fix it in notprimal. i haven't encountered this issue myself.

start a new account on web, and try and follow someone, happens for me every time, or read what people on reddit say, search for primal

https://reddit.com/r/nostr

just tried and it works fine for me. i just created this account and followed jack and it worked.

good to know thanks, but many many people have reported this issue, i dont know what triggers it ... i get it every time i try with a new account ... maybe its only for some ...

what browser are you using?

Same on chrome, firefox, edge

This is a problem with Nostr itself, with the design of kind 3 follow lists. It needs to be fixed in the NIPs, but nobody will do it because it would break all existing follows.

Ditto has the same "problem" as Primal, where you can't follow unless we already have a follow list for you. Because it's worse to delete a person's entire follow list by mistake than it is to prevent them from being able to follow.

I'm working on a design for a "sync profile" modal to fix this, where it gives you the option to try finding your follow list, or to create a fresh one (destructive).

Nice! I may be able to help with this. I'm going to go ahead and start writing a version of follows that works.

But its really hard to get started for LOTs of users. Most dont stick around to give a bug report.

I think I don't see all the posts published by the people I follow on #amethyst nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcscpyug

For example, I didn't see that post of nostr:nprofile1qqsdv8emcke7k3qqaldwv956tstu40ejg663gdsaayuuujs6pknw7jspp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmqpzfmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2uc86mqq0 who is a person I've been following.

I only saw it because it was boosted by nostr:nprofile1qqsr7acdvhf6we9fch94qwhpy0nza36e3tgrtkpku25ppuu80f69kfqpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0d4hhxarj9ecxjmnt9uq3zamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7eyerqr

Weird.

The biggest issue I'm having right now is that the web app has stopped hiding mutes altogether. Please fix this ASAP, it's extremely aggravating. 🙏

https://github.com/PrimalHQ/primal-web-app/issues/87

Does seem to take a while for replies and media uploads to go through, but I'm sure that's more of a relay thing for me. So far it's nice, thank you.

where's the code updates for the web app? there's isn't any new commits on the repo.

https://github.com/PrimalHQ/primal-web-app

The fix was on the caching service side. We are working on a major upgrade of the web app for Primal 2.0. The public repo will be updated when we launch (in 2-3 weeks).

soon tm?

good guy, sam. always looking out for the non-technical users.

Great! I want to stick with primal.

Thank you for your work!

thank you for your hard work

ONWARD 🫡

How can I do QA or regression testing for Primal. #willworkforbitcoin

Yes! The web app is a lot better! Thanks for you work!

The only thing I do not like about Primal is that it asked me for personal information to be able to make an account.

Up

Thank you Miljan!

thank you for your update and hard work! Much appreciated 👌👏

Still blacklisted from the wallet for some reason...Strike I have onboarded no problem.

Same thing happened with me. I ended up telling them I lived in a different state and then it worked fine. I sent support an email explaining that but they didn’t respond

How about me dloading the app and actually not having to look for a button that lets me post content Gsus fuck!!!

I’m looking forward to the updates. Step it up. 🚀

hey how can i change my primal lightning address? i got a random one

Web app has issue in Safari. This note doesn’t render for example:

https://primal.net/e/note1uk2z2jdfkhaj3wau9e0yk7r9xluxqfl79j6vjglzm4hqk8qnw5gq3uuelu

i guess the updated web-app is not yet main on github? i am running a local client build from main.

Our production web app is main on github. The performance fix was in the caching service.

The web app definitely goes load feeds quicker 🫡

Thank you for the update.

Thank you very much! 💯👍💕

Primal is the best looking web app. Waiting for new version!

Always use primal on your mobile and PC. I have tested other clients without success. Primal is simple, fast and secure.

STAY THE COURSE 🌊⛵️

Thanks for all the work you and your team are doing to continuously improve Primal.

Is there a way to see a real-time timeline rather than the ‘Trending’ options?

Thank you and God speed!

Great to hear! I was a bit worried with the lack of commits on github recently.

brand new here - and am looking forward to the improvements

Thank you🙏

Thanks for the hard work, excited to see the improvements! Always good to hear when things are getting faster and more reliable. Looking forward to those major updates! 👏

Thanks Miljan - have had issues with the search function not working nor the report a profile. Have started seeing a few impersonators cropping up.

Keep it up!

eagerly waiting 👨‍🌾

Hey Miljan. Love the app . Some feedback… on Iphone SE small screen the „reply function“ doesnt really work. Reply button disappears sometimes when inserting picture or to much text. Kond regards from Germany
