iris-messenger VS sydent

2- Adding my profile name with iris.to it says my name is already used. So I know it is mine, assuming that's from the Damus profile. Now I seem to have 2?

I recently got into iris.to to access nostr on desktop. I was using my phone primarily but Damus seems to be broken. Does anyone know if there is an option to change the theme of the site? not a fan of the dark mode. +appearance tab doesn't show anything but "Show connected relays in header"

Nostr - https://iris.to - https://coracle.social

Interesting because on iris.to it still says false.

Web: https://snort.social, https://primal.net, https://coracle.social, https://iris.to

nope https://iris.to/

ok I'm new to this, just trying to get off the Musky mess… so I tried iris.to & astral.ninja & I simply don't get it : why do I see zero posts in so-called "global" mode ? I get I can't see some stuff without following accounts , but an absolute zero is weird & not very engaging, no way those will have the slightest chance to become popular in that state…

Iris is open source. Your bug report will certailny be appreciated here.

other nostr apps you can try (but no communities yet): amethyst (android), damus io, primal.net, snort.social , iris.to

GitHub Discussions can also be a great place for support as long as these are regularly monitored. Another option along the same lines is Discourse and the Open Source Matrix which is used by quite a few Open Source and community-based projects.

Tangential: the article notes that Telegram is an “encrypted messaging app”. While this is technically true, it's worth keeping in mind that it's not end-to-end encrypted, so it's less secure in that regard than, say, Signal or even WhatsApp. Telegram does have opt-in end-to-end encrypted one-on-one chats, but those are very inconvenient to use.

For a properly encrypted chat app, including group chats (opt-in), try Matrix instead: https://matrix.org/

I'd love something like the Matrix [0] data model (JSON messages aggregated in an eventually-consistent chatroom CRDT) transmitted over something like simplex for metadata resistance.

Trillian mod here. There's this new thing called Beeper, works on matrix.org. It's not as the good old times, but I'm currently using whatsapp, FB messenger, discord, telegram, signal, imessage and a few more. It's not Cerulean experience, but it's... slowly improving.

I'm trying to change my account provider from "matrix.org" to whatever Element One needs, and for the life of me I just don't understand what values I have to put where to be able to log in. I tried `element.io`, which takes me to sso.element.io but this doesn't seem like the right thing (no credentials work as I expect.
