Christian, Working on futr nostr client, Junior Haskell developer for life
Before and after screen recordings of FUTR, the nostr client: New - fast and easy scroll (~50 times faster): Old - scrolling large feeds can easily freeze the application: Available for testing on continuous release. I'm going to hit release button later today. www.futrnostr.com #nostr #nostrdev #futr
Lots of manual testing, Bugfixes and cleanup today. Looks good for 0.4 release, maybe tomorrow if no further blocker pops up. www.futrnostr.com #nostr
I've done it. Futr is now 50x faster! Need to clean up some debugging and fix two issues, release early the next. futrnostr.com #nostr
Next update on FUTR: - no LMDB related issue confirmed - found an issue in software design instead - working on a fix - still nicely leads into next awaited futr feature, namely custom feeds So here we go, working on feeds which will resolve the scrolling issue as well. Not gonna issue any promises, but next week sounds reasonable to be done.
Sheesh, I found it, I found it, I really found it, I think. Confirmation tomorrow, followed by immediate release. This finally makes futr REALLY fast. - it already loads feeds now hundreds of times faster - reduced layout recalculation, especially recognizable on slow devices - now finally fast scroll without FFI interference??? This sentence should become a reality: FUTR is the fastest and most lightweight nostr client out there. New features being added directly afterwards. - Linux and Windows nostr client
Back to work, HsQML has been released yesterday, so maybe I can release another Bugfix release of futr the same week? Let's try.
I don't know why, but Jesus showed me how to hack the world. All glory to Jesus Christ. Good night.
Futr is already probably the fastest and most lightweight nostr client out there, and guess what: I found another thing that will massively boost app performance once again. 🔥 Probably ready in a couple of days, then I'm going to work on some new features. Stay tuned. www.futrnostr.com
