I have Keet, but I can't seem to get anyone else to use it. I'm seeing more adoption of SimpleX as more people seem to be moving away from Signal and Telegram.

Keet as a few things to improve before it is really ready for prime-time.

There's currently no way to leave a room once you have joined. Pretty sure that has been the case since the update that allowed logging into the same profile from all your devices, but it broke something about being able to leave a room.

There's no way to have sub-rooms. For instance, if I wanted to set up a room for my church that had one room for organizing events, one for posting hymns for the upcoming service, one for prayer requests, and one for just general discussion, I would need to set them up as completely separate and unrelated rooms mixed in with the list of all the other rooms I am in. Given the main competitors are Telegram and Discord, this is a must-have feature, in my opinion.

In small rooms of only a few people, sharing media can be rough. I will send an image to my buddy, and when he opens up the app to look at it, it won't load because I am already offline doing something else. So he will send me a message "I can't see what you sent." And then I have to go online while he still has his app open for it to show up. There's not really a way around this, since Keet doesn't use any servers in-between our devices. Yet, this is not what "mainstream" will expect as their UX without something warning them the first time they share a media file, explaining why this is the case.

I would also like to see a version of Keet that can be hosted on an always online device, so room participants can act as a "relay" for media sent by participants using mobile devices that don't keep the room open when they aren't actively using the app.

Has it improved since a year ago? I had huge troubles connecting. Så i changed to something else

WHAT IS UP NOSTR

Merdellow@iris.to has the car content here on nostr. I think he has done a few notes about kit cars being right for bitcoiners.

Yikes! I’ve been writing too much code lately
