Great stuff!
The Material 3 upgrade *really* addressed some of the UI "issues" I reported earlier regarding fonts, spacing, etc. #amethyst _is_ looking prettier and more balanced but maybe more work on the colouring of the UI elements will help to "declutter" the notes now? Congratulations and thanks for a solid release!

Think I found a glitch, "add to private bookmarks" appears to not be working
Hum.. how so? Did it disappear for you?
No, it's there but nonresponsive
hum... do you remember how many items or if you have any non text notes there? I wonder if the list became too big or if there is a heavy note crashing it somehow
Do you mind sending a video or a print screen of what you see?
Not exactly how many notes on there but it's a lot... I can try to take a look at it with listr.lol and pare it down

Now that we have Material 3, can we _please_ remove the borders on the quoted notes to reclaim some precious pixels' real state and replace them with just backgound colors? #nostrdesign


Sorry, which borders would you like to reduce?
Compare the 1px/2px borders on the botttom quoted note on #amethyst vs no borders on the same quoted noted on #plebstr (but still keeps its' UI elements grouped by just changing the background color)


Do you mean the space after "release!" on your message? The issue that I have is that you, the author of this post, explicitly added the space in the post. There is a new line there. We can break what the author wanted or keep it as close to the original content. Amethyst is closer to the original intention while plebster tweaks it to make it closer. I always sided with the way the author writes. Because if we start changing how posts look then it doesn't take much to start changing other things.
You can see the new line here: https://www.nostr.guru/e/0ac462cc6861670d0b918636467012f512fdfd2d2ed91dfe223c2a62a06bb2ab?relays=wss://relay.damus.io/
I'm not making myself clear enough and you're just too pacient. I shall make a mockup to get my point across regardless of my very limited GIMP chops. I will attach it to your next note on this thread. Promise.
It wasn't that? Interesting. Looking forward to seeing what your mockups :) ๐
It's only me or it seems a little slower changing sections with the bottom menu?
I think so, I am investigating what created it
Just got the new update and things look good. Great work Vitor!
Not sure why but Obtainium error out with a conflict when I try to upgrade. I was thinking of deleting the app and installing again but I fear I'll have to reconfig everything again.
