Do people really use phones to do all sorts of things? I think I use my phone just to listen to podcasts and send chat messages, other activities are secondary. I guess sometimes I read things there too, but every time I am presented with a URL that could potentially open a webpage full of JavaScript I feel bad and often do not click.

thats cuz javascript. no shame there.
It's a myth ..
All my banking stuff I still do on my Laptop
All my writing and coding ( whatever little) I do on Deaktop
All the YouTube and consumption media is best on my Desktop

Cell phones are good for taking calls .. which I never take anyways :-)
it's not a phone, it's a mobile computer.
Deaktop ftw 🙌🏽
In some countries, that’s practically all people use
That was an intentional typo to showcase editing feature on #Amethyst :-)
Some games on the phone aren't bad. 80%+ are mostly ads.
Gave up my phone for deaktop ages ago
Com certeza os governos faram esses tipo de ataque aos usuários do nostr. Enviaram links como se fosse algo a se ver e pegaram informações sensíveis de usuários. Não há como se criar uma solução que busque o link e exiba dentro do nostr para o usuário? Sem que os dados de conexão sejam expostos?
I think the big mistake for many people is relying on their phone for _everything_. Phones give great independence but the paradox is that people become too dependent on their phone. That is not lost on the mobile OS vendors and I think many governments are perfectly happy with this because it gives them a singular lever to control an individual.
Young people in Brazil no longer possess basic computer skills. They struggle with tasks such as copying and pasting or finding a file in a folder because they no longer use computers, only phones.
It was my third year running before I fired up an old "One Plus" just for the love of #nostr .. not a bad call ..
Most people don't have a PC, so they are trapped in this little screen designed for consumption.
Friend of mine managed dev of phones for a couple of companies. His take kinda made sense:
The most depressing job as I have to make sure huge number of features and functions so need to learn everything that I know will barely be used. They’re fantastic for the 5% max of our users who we know through surveys actually use everything. For the rest, it’s a phone with a camera and they don’t even know the rest exists.
Same in Italy
wait
what
Amethyst is the best!!!
Yes. A friend of mine, who has been a teacher for 20 years, told me how over the years he has seen students becoming less and less used to PCs.
The example he gives is that they don't know the potential, even of things that might interest them, for example they don't know how to search for and download an MP3.
With COVID, schools have accelerated the 'digital conversion' and now the children (< 14 years old) are better off, but they are still trapped in the cloud world, Google above all.
#damus is the best actually x
Ok there's room for two bests amethyst and damus are both dope af!!

I think me and most of people do.
I don't go out with money, credit cards, documents, paper, pencil, anything else anymore. Only my phone
All sorts of things are not available yet on phones although there are many things and people use their phones for what they need to do. So one way of advancing the way of using phones is to think about what the people need in their daily lives and make it phone friendly.
You don’t like JavaScript, I think the use of many other libraries of programming languages have discredited it although it is a component of many of them (many programming languages can trend and fade away although JavaScript is still here and that gives it a certain importance).
My phone is my primary device and I do about 95% of everything on it. My laptop is secondary.
Caro amigo Fiat o Nostr esta muito instavel, trava demais e demora para atualizar as postagens. Dessa forma jamais conseguiremos atrair publico e derrotar as redes sociais centralizadas!
good morning from my phone
I've used my phone less and less, now just for podcasts primarily and calls.
I think so, I sketch out most of my ideas with my phone.
Damus,Iris,Nostur,Openvibe estão realmente muito ruins ,na verdade péssimos! Tudo muito lento,demoram uma eternidade para atualizar uma simples mensagem ou foto,vídeo então? Esquece,péssimo! Vou migrar minha conta para a Primal, definitely the best option to use NOSTR is only Primal! 😎⚡️
If I wasn't a software dev I would maybe touch my laptop once a week.
