During a brief @Nostr Nests session, @Vitor Pamplona announced that the official Google Play version of Amethyst will NOT have NIP-94 and NIP-95 enabled by default. The majority of users that use Amethyst get their version from Google Play. Those that wish to remain on the bleeding edge of tech and want to do A/B testing can do so and use the version from GitHub. This is fantastic news! Thanks Vitor! Nostr is winning.

This is good to hear 💜 The possibilities with NIP-94 and 95 need time to be tested and understood by users, and relay operators need time to consider the implications of hosting this data and build for the necessary underlying infrastructure to support them. A richer more decentralized experience interacting with files on Nostr is a good thing to build toward, but not at the expense of crippling user experience in the process when it’s not urgently necessary to do so.
