Using Nostr on a throttled mobile connection while traveling internationally often means I don't use Nostr unless I'm on WiFi. Most apps just don't work well, making dozens of network connections and attempting to download massive images or videos. This is a problem.
devs are spoiled. building software like everyone has an unlimited 5G data plan and a last gen phone. if you do the opposite (build for low end, low connectivity, spotty network access) you end up with something that works for the lowest common denominator and feels ultra snappy on higher end phones and better connections.
