I'm watching these three new Android clients. All of them have two things in common:

1) they are in early developmental stages

2) they all take design very seriously

Plebstr - It's in early development, but available now on Google Play beta. It's usable in the current form, but missing features. It has absolutely the most beautiful transitions and animations out of any client that I've seen thus far.

Current - It's in early development. It's available on Google Play beta (and Apple App Store). It has the best onboarding experience out of any Nostr client. They made very precise design and naming decisions to make the experience familiar and inviting. It still needs a lot of work, but improving fast.

Plasma - In very early development. It's available on GitHub if you compile the APK yourself. It's not usable in it's current form. The alpha will be available on March 6th. The UI is very clean and very simple.

Good morning 🌞

Ouch.

Nostr's design is truly decentralized which is good, but normal users may be surprised by the amount of data and client-side processing that is required to have a rich social media experience. It can too easily consume far more mobile data than hyper-optimized mobile YouTube streaming.

They already begun to optimize by providing things like data saving image compression proxies.

Perhaps Mobile Nostr clients need pop-up warnings about mobile data consumption. Other apps give users options to automatically minimize mobile data use while they are unrestricted while on WiFi. For example a mobile Nostr client detecting mobile data mode could skip loading of images or show a very low res version from a proxy until you click on the image to download.

People who do not support, do not care about or never heard about the "gossip model" -- which is basically the idea that clients should (mostly) automatically find people in wherever relays they are and fetch their notes from these relays -- here is a question for you:

What would happen if everybody is following Alex Jones on the 10 biggest relays, but they all collude to ban Alex Jones? Then Alex Jones starts publishing on a relatively tiny relay hosted in Colombiat. How can Nostr fulfill its censorship-resistant promises in this situation? Would all of his millions of Nostr followers have to manually open their settings and add his new relay address?

Plebstr is in first alfa version. Zaps coming soon! ⚡️
