i think apps that support mixed networks are even better like Samiz from @fiatjaf . I think nostr is actually a very good unlock for building network agnostic apps because its just pushing signed json between relays so the actual connectivity is fairly irrelevant for nostr-native applications this way ppl can use their daily driver also in scenarios where primary mode (internet) of communications is interrupted vs ppl having to have installed and configured apps beforehand (or needing to figure out how to install things offline and figure them out when you most need them) View quoted note →

A chat app which needs an open Bluetooth connection sounds creepy. Bluetooth is a weak point of a phone which should be turned off. #Bitchat

lol bitchat is retarded

I'm confused, all this poser talk of privacy on nostr and now it is somehow good for me to run around with Location Services turned on and GPS running so I can use Bitchat.

Well, just the app needs it. Gateways built in our phones which makes GrapheneOS more desirable.

Not so with Bitchat, needs full phone Location Services and yes I am on GOS.

Correct, the app needs those "full" permissions but not your whole phone. Just the app to access without restrictions that radio.

In earlier version this was the case as you stated. In later version, phone Location Services needs to be enabled (not just app location permission) before Bitchat would let you go past first app screen...unless they changed it again.

This is with location permission for Bitchat app given.
