Derek Ross on Nostr: Many developmental changes are easily overlooked if they're not large or user facing. ...

Many developmental changes are easily overlooked if they're not large or user facing. I too often wish that clients had certain features or were more stable, but in the end I also immensely appreciate every single bit of work, every single line of code, and every bit of time sacrificed in the name of building. I understand that you work hard and that your client is your baby.

Don't stop.

Love you, brother and keep up the amazing work. I look forward to complaining about Damus on Android soon 🫂🥹

In the past year we have created the fastest embedded nostr relay/db which powers our note opengraph previews, android/notedeck, ios profile and note search. This tech will enable damus to have note stats without relying on centralized services like other clients. Soon it will enable a completely offline and speedy experience on ios. We pioneered image blurhashes and image metadata so damus and other clients don’t have a janky feed when scrolling. We added the limit feature to nostr queries so that you don’t have to pull down thousands of notes when querying. We added zaps, reactions and reposts. We added command results so notes can actually be saved to relays reliably. The reason you can even load nostr notes on your phone is likely due to the optimizations we have made to the protocol and will continue to do so. But sure, knock us because we don’t have a gif keyboard.
