Amber is not complicated.
And on nostr survivorship bias is something you, as a dev, should listen to. We're the stubborn idiots who have been around long enough to actually USE nostr. If we aren't your target market, then you are missing out on the most powerful force for getting people to use your software.
You're pissing off the very people who would gladly help you bootstrap people into your ecosystem.
You're a smart dude, and one I genuinely respect as a dev... But I'm never rawdogging my nsec into an app ever again. Especially if it us using chrome as a base, since I avoid chrome at all costs. I'm here because I don't use big tech BS, and that is rather unfortunate to learn.
So, yeah. I'm not your target. But I probably should be.

Correction: not using the chrome browser, he's referring to the core structure of his app as a chrome, the app is fully native
I just learned that today... 😅
Why not call the core Firefox, to make things less confusing?
Well to be fair Google are the ones who made it confusing. The term chrome as been used for this for over 30 years haha
The implication here seems to be that when Will does what he thinks he should, and people get pissed about that decision, that it's Will's responsibility. I reject that premise. The beauty of NOSTR is that one can choose.
Each developer choosing to make the client that fits them best should be celebrated. Each developer averaging some perception of what they think the user wants wouldn't end well. Worse if developer chooses based on the comments of the vocal, biased by selection. Better to consult principle and common sense.
TLDR, It's good that there are multiple opinions, not bad.
