I hear that from

of devs. Mostly the Big Tech copy-cats.
But Nostr opens up new UX patterns that no UI framework ever had to consider.
- browsing and hopping from content type top content type, 12x levels deep without leaving the app
- an order of magnitude more content types in one app than your typical Big Tech app
- a need for multiple text renderers (especially an inline one that no one is currently putting time in)
- interop ui elements like npub-derived colors
- coherence across multiple new concepts
Anyway I can keep talking and listing stuff... It'll sound ridiculous to most.
When I see a daily driver built with some off the shelf framework that works as a true Nostr notication dashboard + browser, I'll change my mind.
