0xChat is basically at the cutting edge of what's currently possible with Nostr in terms of direct communication. It has audio/video calls, gift-wrapped private DMs, & both private and public group chats, light discovery page & minimal design. It's also a great default app for all Nostr notifications. Absolutely love it 🀌🀍 image

Its buggy AF Notifications nake noise but no notification Problems with media saving and uploads No idea when people are calling Not running in Background well I have it on my families phone and it's basically unusable now.
A kind of DM note that is unsigned. To prove its you who sent it, it uses a wrapping (other notes) that dont have the message but have the signature. So dividing these notes, it is like message itself can't be proved to be yours, unless you also have the wrapping, and because of that there is a plausible deniability. More here:
Nostr signer app. You don’t have to enter your nsec into other compatible nostr apps and web apps when you use it
You can add any open-source app by copying and pasting the app's GitHub repository link in Obtainium. Obtainium will notify you when the developer uploads any new release and one-click update installation. download link for Obtainium.
By the way, if there are any extra features you'd like to see, please don't hesitate to mention them. The app is still in its early beta version, and I created it primarily for my own use. I needed something like this! πŸ˜‚

Not if you're using Unified Push with ntfy for notifications. There seems to be a bug in #Amber that breaks UP Auth events for both Amethyst & 0xchat. The only way UP works for either is to disable Amber and sign in directly with nsec.
Once we have truly private DMs, Nostr will be unstoppable. Decentralized, truly private, and permissionless, protocol. True public free speech. Truly private personal/group chats. Complete anonymity. If we really pull this off, I'm telling you, it's going to be revolutionary.

Yeah, sorry for the miscommunication. The images sent via DM are end-to-end encrypted, while others (audio, video) are not. Will fix it in the next update.

Actually zap.store fetches most apps from Github. But with additional security guards (checking hashes signed by the dev), web of trust display and better discovery. And soon zaps. Obviously Github directly has way more apps, but we're getting there.
I agree, it's cutting edge at the moment. I would argue that it's probably too complicated though.

We're looking at the future, folks. This is how we oppose creeping violations to our right to privacy and expression in the age of information and digitization.

Good to know, appreciate the heads up!
Been fiddling with this for the last day, got rid of about 3 or 4 grouped folder things on my home screen that I was always fiddling with. After some adjustments of finger habits, I think I like the one app in alphabetical order as a launchpad without having to scroll through a couple sub 'pages' or whatever in the way I had it set up before. Simple but feels like it cleaned me up some. 🫑
I didn't think I'd like the big grid of everything but I actually do. I haven't messed around with the saved url links or notes. I wish the few PWAs could be pinned like the apps, but don't hate the consolidation. image
Did you setup folders on nostr build for gifs ? Maybe I should organize and store my tenor favourites. It's a google acquisition: they could take it down anytime
