Depends on your objective, I'd say. I tried Amethyst a few days ago but it still lacked much. Installing it again.
Here we go... Amethyst v0.9.6 with Post View Counts. I am sure you are going to let me know your feelings about this.

Starting to look a lot like Twitter
Sadly, I'll be joining virtually. No money to travel off country
In a perfect world we could pay for plane tickets with bitcoin. Until then, have to join the #nostrica virtually
Asked #ChatGPT to generate 5 #nostr posts, here's what he came up with:
1 - "Just finished my morning jog and feeling energized for the day ahead! #fitness #motivation"
2 - Had a great time exploring the city with friends yesterday. So many beautiful sights to see! #travel #adventure"
3 - "Excited to start working on my new project. It's going to be a challenging but rewarding experience. #entrepreneur #growth"
4 - "Can't believe how fast time flies. My baby girl is already walking and talking! #parenting #joy"
5 - "Feeling grateful for all the love and support in my life. Life is good. #gratitude #happiness"
Why do these all feel the same to me?
It was the first time, the app didn't ask for any permission. Was using it through Wi-Fi, but I'll change to mobile data, do a few more tests and report back soon
After a few minutes of use, found that there's no search function (thought there was but it was the global feed), can't add images from the gallery in posts (although the UI shows that option), can't open settings, can't edit profile. I was also unable to post anything, tried twice but post never appeared in other clients. (tested from Android 12)
Amethyst 0.8, now with user tagging and a new Logo

- New Logo
- User/Search tagging on composing
- Thread safe improvements

Very neat UI, will give your client a try!
Link is client-based tho. The unique feature of a post is its noteID, which I can't seem to link here properly. Maybe another client-based capability, like posting images
OK just found out that I don't know how to link to other posts
Ups, meant to write note13fg8fz3kshp4c96554fq3080agzqq6f8207gk95tjx23s3f9rpxslgzz33
Meanwhile found a solution in #note13fg8fz3kshp4c96554fq3080agzqq6f8207gk95tjx23s3f9rpxslgzz33
This works!! Thank you so much
I have my public key in npub format, what I don't have is the private key in an nsec format. Is it the same procedure? nsec1 prefix and 6 chars checksum at the end?
How can I apply this to convert my private key into nsec format?
Sorry, that left me even more confused
For sure it has potential! But right now, I believe #nostrid and #hamstr are one step ahead.
Snort has no search function and the auto update of the global feed is kinda annoying.
Yeah, using a combination of color + different characters is always the best option, not only on social networks, but on everything that has color and tries to relay information to the reader
