I WEAKLY RECOMMEND these apps (first recommendations I've made yet) -

* Stagenet version of Garnet by developer retnull / retrnull, of unknown npub
* Nostrudel.ninja by
* Amber by
* Nos2x by
* Nos2x-fox by

Why are these WEAK recommendations?

To you, maybe all my recommendations should be weak because I am not a coder, cryptographer, or mathematician, and cannot review code for security issues at all.

To me, these reasons:

* These are all on GitHub without even backup links to the work of
* Garnet - using Monero for tips might break its anonymity, the bounty on a monero-based nostr client might be a deep state bounty connected to the IRS bounty for cracking Monero, it's weird that there's a Monero-based client before a dogecoin-based client. The availability of a Stagenet version at least shows self-awareness of this being experimental 🤙
* Nostrudel.ninja - I can't get discovery feeds to work, I see others report other issues, the project could sorta be considered "stretched thin" but that's also exactly what got it in my recommendations
* The others - I'm paranoid in general and none of this stuff is designed the way I would design it so it's hard for me to strongly recommend anything at this experimental prototype stage.

These aren't the only apps I would ever suggest using, or use myself, or onboard someone with, but they are the first ones I've noticed seeming more worthwhile (or less untrustworthy) than others.
