I love all the development around #amethyst, but one long-running issue that still bugs the heck out of me is the persistent "media player" card that shows up in Android, and just stays there forever...

Nostr's tiny, but it's one of the few spaces that feels genuinely innovative. I've never found myself excited for new software releases since... IDK, the 00's? In a world where everything's a grift, this feels real, even if it's just us ~40 weirdos.

Yes, domain centralization is a problem here, but this is also clearly a problem of centralization of communication around X. For individuals interacting with institutions, there is no "going through channels" anymore. It's "tag them on X."
