Oh, so you have a vendetta against Primal and Coinkite. I believe both companies should be free to work together. I also haven't met or encountered anyone who was being forced to use either of their products.
Primal is OSS. Both companies seem to be delivering value to their users. I don't think every company that engages with Bitcoin is obligated to provide long term benefit to the Bitcoin OSS ecosystem. It would be cooler if they did.
I won't be responding after this because this no longer seems to be about what the OP was about.

I've been seeing people describe ecash in Fedimints and Cashu as users giving away their bitcoin for ecash. Is this framing actually correct, or is there something more nuanced going on? I've seen elsewhere that users aren't giving away their bitcoin but are instead also receiving server credits that allow them to interact with the Lightning gateway of mints. Can someone clarify this for me? nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg nostr:npub1t0nyg64g5vwprva52wlcmt7fkdr07v5dr7s35raq9g0xgc0k4xcsedjgqv
nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx - Any personal favourites? I started off with Amethyst and have since moved to Primal.
Primal, Damus, and Gossip are my favorites.

Whether or not something is connected to the internet doesn't determine if it's open source or not. In the case of Tails, your USB drive is probably proprietary hardware, despite being able to flash open-source firmware onto it.
I do believe that the Trezor Model T is 100% open source, but its overall security is another thing. It's also worth pointing out that the computer connected to it by USB could be running open-source software, but it's probably not on open hardware. You might find this interesting.

I can't think of one device that is 100% open source hardware and software. Some part of it is always closed.
I can't get this to work with Vanadium on Graphene OS. Install app isn't an option.
I like Little Snitch but it's closed source. LuLu definitely needs a lot of UI work. It does work ok from my limited testing. It might be unusable if you can't live without the profiles feature in Little Snitch.
What do you think about nostrdb?
Primal isn't the enemy.
IMO it's the best node package. Their documention is also incredibly well written. I'm considering running another machines with StartOS. One for Bitcoin and one for non-bitcoin services. I'm glad that clearnet access is going to be improved and released soon.
Is nostr:npub1v0lxxxxutpvrelsksy8cdhgfux9l6a42hsj2qzquu2zk7vc9qnkszrqj49 still maintaining the Snort Android app?
I think there are too many features in Amethyst.
I'm glad that I missed the fad.
I don't want it to disappear but I would like to see some improvements. I like the approach Damus takes. You can filter global through paid relays. It could also be improved with more filtering like WOT.
I don't use them because I rarely see something that I want to engage with. The apps I use don't push me toward them either.
