Hi! Just came across our profile and I noticed you have an empty relay list, is this intentional? Without it, replies and likes to anything you post becomes very fragmented, it just goes to those relays that users have, instead of your relays. Thanks for great content!

Ok thanks for sharing, I'll give it a go on an older Android phone I have. I noticed you have 13 relays, with the outbox model you really don't need more than 3-4. By having 13, everyone who likes or replies to you, is publishing events to all of those relays. It will be better for you and better for others if you reduce the amount of relays.

Having issues with the new encrypted media viewing, or in general? If in general, what doesn't work well? There was a very aggressive optimization of relay subscriptions that has been improved, and many other quality improvements recently.

If you're like me and don't have time to doom scroll the feeds all day long, then you'll find the Summary on to be very handy. It will get much improvements soon, to include more content such as public chats, communities and more.

The free cities? Liberstad is currently updating website, so not much information available there right now: https://www.liberstad.com/ Here is a quick introduction to Montelibero: https://montelibero.net/en/ The official site has the most information, there is an auto-translate option here from Russian to English: https://montelibero.org/

I think there is many younger developers who want to get some credibility, and I understand them. But with the capabilities now with AI, it's much more valuable for someone to create a well written issue, better that the core maintainers run AI on their own codebases than third parties.

It is what you can remove of features that matters, not the amount of feature you can add. Though it's an important balance, without enough features it's just useless. Most other Nostr clients doesn't render proper content in DMs, they just support very basic text chats. Users expect better, nobody will migrate from Instagram chat if they can't share photos and videos in chats. One of many examples. I am still churning and burning, focusing on optimizations and user experience is my number one priority at the moment.

Have you looked into Free Cities? I founded Liberstad and live in Montelibero City during winter, Liberstad in summer. https://free-communities.org/
