Settings is a good candidate - I'm thinking of redesigning because it already has a lot of things in there. I want to add a search there too but grouping will be important.
Can you run the desktop app and see what we have on Settings currently or should I send some screenshots?

True, except the Primal part. Nostr grows together, it's like building out a marketplace - there will be competing stores, but better to have multiple boutiques that draws in people

yeah I usually don't like more than 1-2 posts so I'm not the best example. But I think there's a lot of junk habbits based on Facebook, where people are used to liking 3 posts / second or zapping similarly. And I think Nostr clients don't necessary need to offer the same UX, audience might grow more deliberate, etc...
Also agree with you, but I think its a solution question. For ex. I can have instant reaction feedback with a local relay, and if I want to check my past interactions with the world I can check that relay

- changed card shapes
- added expanded sidebar with text
- quick search to home feed

Agreed and I like the "dependable" phrasing. I think UX needs to be transparent about what happens.
For ex. If I like a post don't mark it "liked" until it's not broadcast. Personally that's why I like the broadcast info banner - I know that my reaction is being sent out to the world, through relay x, y, z and where something is going off.

I don't think Nostr needs to be like Facebook at all. I think UX needs to reflect Nostr specific infra - like broadcasting to multiple relays, etc..
But that's the beauty of Nostr - you can use whichever client works for you.

The App Drawer tries to address that. Default now ships with 3-4 icons I think + More that opens app drawer to customize workspaces or open a screen/app.
I think that's the best navigation on a Desktop - 1) cmd + K for an easy search if you can't find an app + 2) custom workspaces (default, playing, reading, etc...)

On Amethyst Desktop via Workspaces:
- AppDrawer to easily search screens & Workspaces
- Create custom Workspaces (single or deck). For ex. Default, Play, Reading, Writing

This is why all Open Source apps should have an LLM architecture. Maybe 1 for contributors + 1 for users. Give the non-technical user an LLM guide to modify source code.

2026-01-14 13:31:02 UTC

@nprofile…2lxp I feel like Amethyst should take a bolder stance on redefining UX standards. For ex. making all broadcast events more transparent, for ex: reaction broadcasts to show a "note like broadcast to x/n relays" snackbar with an expandable popup with the relays and broadcast status. Benefits IMO:
- more transparent about what hitting like just did
- drives user decisions about managing relays. "Why is this relay always failing, etc..."
What do you think?

@nprofile…2lxp PR with Threads and Notifications for Desktop: https://github.com/vitorpamplona/amethyst/pull/1663.
I've moved files around without the type alias reference hack. One q I'm having is how to share ViewModels properly. Feels like there's a lot to be shared, but part of it is platform specific.
What do you think of introducing UseCases in the Domain layer? ViewModel becomes more dumb and just UI logic related. Maybe the Actions can already be considered domain layer components 🤔

The new LLMs are great, seems like Nov/Dec was an inflection point. My key takeaways:
Devil is in the details, but focus on spec, not code creation:
- how does quality look like?
- define key metrics, log and monitor
- review key implementation decisions (such as dependency decisions)
- write tests first. Do TDD
Think spec first. If you don't like the implementation you haven't defined requirements well enough.
AI is now amazing at getting you from A to B. But B needs to be clearly defined

@nprofile…qm68 I've vibed together an MVP Amethyst desktop app. Tried to limit Android impact. PR is still large, but most is just reusing Android into a now KMP shared commons module - this is what I love about KMP, you can share UI components too, but still keep navigation or other platform specifics separate.

@nprofile…grcu @nprofile…fg9w @nprofile…205a a quick FOSS win IMO is to make sure projects have a standardized doc + contribution guide for LLMs. Something that any platforms can feed on - for ex. Claude can easily convert to agents and skills.
Maybe an llms.txt adjacent to README.md (latter should be concise but the first detailed with contribution guides, project goals, standards, etc..)

Measured with Trifield and was surprised how high it was at:

- eth to type-C adapter close to hand very high (I remember 100-400V/m2) but can measure again
- cat6 lowest, but still more than I'd like (I'm looking for near zero)
Looking to troubleshoot this. My household transitioning from WiFi to Eth depends on this :D
