Amethyst is a love/hate app for me. Sometimes it just flies, sometimes it won’t ever connect to more than a few relays, fall back to just displaying npubs without avatars and names and not show anything except my own notes.
No pattern thus far; tried various settings, especially tor-related, to no effect. Ever since the relay handling got updated it’s 50/50, so either barely useable or almost amazing.
