corndalorian on Nostr: Devs who keep telling users not to use Primal because “x, y, or z doesn’t work” ...
Devs who keep telling users not to use Primal because “x, y, or z doesn’t work” the way they think it should are missing the point that Primal provides the easiest to onboard and most reliable user experience on nostr for users who don’t have time to tinker with stuff all day long. Your self-imposed purity tests of what a true nostr client/user should be are a waste of time and energy and will lead people to ignore you. You have to build things that normal everyday people will want to use, unless you are specifically building for a niche market/audience. I use a variety of nostr apps, including Primal. Each is good for different reasons, and Primal is good because it’s easy to set up, easy to use, looks beautiful, and for the most part every button and gesture does what you’d expect it to do.
