Nice work everyone!
Downloaded the app. Upgraded the wallet. Smooth as butter. Love the streamlined logo! Congrats!
LFG 🤙🏻💯🧡
This is great
Perfect absorption - not to mention that everything got faster inside the app!
LFG 🔥
OK, now I see it. 🫡

Why is it not working here? 🥺
Wallet upgrade broke my external wallet connection, Just a heads up, maybe update when you’re able to reconnect
G An incredible increase in overall performance, scrolling is ultra smooth. Unfortunately, my muted words are still not respected, which is really extremely annoying.
wow, has primal redeemed itself? I upgraded and noticed I finally have a lightning address because on the first Primal version I wasn't able to get one,
I'll have to keep using it and testing it to see if I can start recommending primal
good work,
What's not working? Are you not able to access the 3.0 release?
Smooth and fast! This is my first message so let's see.
Yes, I’m not able to access it.
Yes that's a known issue. You will have to re-create your NWC connection; sorry!
You're on iOS, right? If you're on Testflight, that might be an old track. If you see the new version in the app store (very blue compared to the old pink/orange), then you can install from there:

App Store
Primal App - App Store
Download Primal by Primal Systems Incorporated. on the App Store. See screenshots, ratings and reviews, user tips, and more apps like Primal.
Welcome! 🫡

Check this out!
Let the GIF marathon start here too 🔥

Just so that you know, if you’re seeing muted words in your “latest” feed, this is expected since you are following these users. If you follow a user and they post content with your muted words, the content will appear anyways. (Following users overrides mute lists)
If this is not the case, that you are seeing muted words from users you are not following, let me know.


Congrats on the update! Onward. 🫡


I just got a zap that was missing the “Zapped Note” part in the details view btw.
Yep, getting rich wallet experience for received zaps didn't make the cut in the initial release, but we just figured out how to do it. Will be included in the next build. 🫡
Bullish. Looking forward to it. 🤙
FWIW, it seems to work with Primal to Primal zaps.


Legends 🫵🏼🫡💜🫂
Thanks for the zap store link. In fairness this looks to good to be true.
🤯 <speechless>
What’s the point of a mute list then?!? I’ve muted n.s.f.w so I don’t see that content even if people I follow
Finally got it to upgrade!


Thanks 🙌🏽 It’s wonderful.

And the logo that changed! Although I use greyscale on my phone so I barely noticed!
well done! can't wait to try the new features.
I finally can zap you! Awesome work! Thanks! And gifs!


I’m getting this when trying to pay an invoice.


Purple pilling just got a whooole lot easier! One more Nostrich onboarded today with the full Nostr functionality ⚡⚡ right from the getgo 🤙🏼💜

Love the new Primal app update to 3.0. This will be my new lighting wallet! Great work to the team



I think there should be an option for backing up both nsec & wallet in the keychain.
that way I can bring newbies into primal directly
Is this Nostr’s killer app (client) moment that takes it to the masses? I think it might be..

We have had it for 3 years :)
Where do we submit feature requests?
It would be nice to have a separate “auto GIF playback” so we don’t have to enable the “auto video playback” option.
GIFs don’t play audio so they won’t unexpectedly blast out sound as you’re scrolling.
Thank you.
How would you describe the algorithm over here?
Would you even call it an algorithm?
As much as you beautifully actualise the benefits of primal. How would you define it's mechanics in relation to competitors like X and Blue sky.
Specifically, in relation to the user experience beyond the interface but in-between nodes and links.
Algorithmic computational comparatives?
What would your solutions architect say about your Primal instincts?
Who is your solutions architect?
And if it's your collective user what is the consensus and collective consciousness really telling us?
Specifically about the future directives, need and demand vs output? @paul keating
Primal is clearly incredibly different to other social media applications but has that been publicly defined yet? (If so, where. How frequently is it reviewed and reiterated to the collective) Through commerical awareness in relation to the fourth and fifth industry?
Nostr.
Relays.
KYC free Wallets.
The need for these mechanical solutions. Specifically, why they are an important alternative to centralised apps is a real powerful narrative that need repetitive insurgence.
I would love to hear more from this kind of perspective. Let me know where I should go to really understand the birth and gestation of Primal. #TFTR26
Nice work! I do miss the purple touch to the logo though.
Keep buidling! 🔥😎
Strangely, when I went to the App Store to upgrade, it wasn’t there, but the above link took me to the new build. Now I have it, thanks.
One per follow feed still broken
This can happen when there is a temporary liquidity issue between the two nodes on the lightning network.
Can you please try again?
Our wallet migration utility fails gracefully and keeps your old wallet intact. You can safely retry many times.
Yes, I had exactly the same issue!
