As a user who is established, and has a good selection of people I follow, Amethyst is great, I love it.
When I test it as a fresh npub it's a nightmare. A global feed filled with hardcore porn and Bitcoin price & op_return bots. Discovery exists, but it's buried a few clicks deep.
A client for new users & lurkers would go a long way. Or a mode in existing clients to help new users take their first steps.
