Which OS version, and which phone do you recommend support for?

I think it is always the best to support low possible OS and devices. Amethyst for example support minimum Android 8.0 (SDK 26)

For device testing, if possible test the app with low performance budget device such as Redmi (Xiaomi) which popular in developing countries (India, Indonesia, etc). If the app can run smoothly in low performance device then it won't be slow in high performance device (Pixel, or any Flagship phone).

It should work on all androids. Will get a xiaomi for testing

Looking forward to Damus Android, Will 🙂

Purchased a redmi 10! $250 phone! Not bad.

Looking forward for your work :) Tester here with low end device is here too.

Oh, nice, that is a good mid entry phone, can be a good minimum test device 👀 Is it Redmi 10 or Redmi Note 10? The price seems quite different from average

It would be amazing if we could mute words.

Came to say we wanted to try Damus, just Android. 🤝

Is there a solution for that?

UnifiedPush

UnifiedPush

👀 Maybe, you can probably release two versions of Damus Android in the future: - Google Play version (using FCM) - FOSS version (unifiedpush) Amethyst have done that.

There's the ntfy app, but I didn't succeed to get it to work with amethyst yet.

On a not super related note (I’m assuming youre also using @GrapheneOS ): do you have recommendations for voip services that work well without google play services or do you prefer to just use your sim phone number for legacy calls/texts?

Signal, Simplex, jitsi all work great.

Yes, it is known issue. I think Vitor and KotlinGeekDev has already aware of the issue and might prepare the bug fix later

I don’t recall using circles, just have third hand info. Can you describe circles, how you might use circles, why you want this feature?

A couple of the feature videos seem to have disappeared in the last year. This one is okay. Basic idea is choosing whom you share content with, and curating/filtering who's content you see. Wicked cool to use, but I can't even conceive of how it would work on Nostr/clients. Communities is a step in the right direction though.

Contact lists also close-ish to the mark.

Got you. Private relays are a tool that maybe allow approach of circles. For instance you can set up a family relay, a work relay etc..

Interesting. 🤔 That's something I might be able to pull off, but definitely not my normies. This is the most solid idea I've heard yet though. Progress. 🤝 I wonder if it would be possible to set them up like a special group DM for he broadcast, and a special filter(s) for the receive.

One approach involves switching relay sets/contexts, somewhat similar to how you might be in multiple discord servers.

afaik damus android will be here Real Soon ™️

literally cannot wait, as much as android clients are *ok*, nothing comes close to my lovely memories of using damus on my iPhone before I switched 😂

There is a nip for it I think. Would be happy to accept an PR that implements it in damus
