any improvements to nostrdb completed while working on notedeck that are then used to improve damus, if truly needed in damus, would have then naturally come along without notedeck existing. if this is the case, then notedeck is at best a side project less people care about. if this is not the case, then notedeck is a distraction to damus work people actually care about. i don't care if he's working on things he enjoys. we all should be. however, any criticisms that damus work is being ignored for another project seem legitimate. then to complain about it essentially directly to your users seems less than ideal, especially when much of your funding comes from organizations like opensats that receive some of their funding from the users your complaining at.
to be clear, i don't have a dog in this fight. i use amethyst. however, it is disheartening to see open source project maintainers bitching about their users to their users.
