i wanted to use noStrudel on my new Android Tablet but here is why i went with Amethyst instead

1 - noStrudel wasn't in Google Play Store
2 - when i opened noStrudel as a web page it seemed to be running in desktop mode with menu on the side, even though the tablet was in portrait orientation. i didn't know if there is some other mode that was available for vertical tablet use or how to enable it.
3 - i really didn't want to deal with Alby again and simply pasting the nsec into Amethyst was a breeze compared to the nightmare of trying to get Alby to find one of like 20 accounts it set up for me and then confused them all with it taking me an average of like 5 trial / error cycles to get Alby to provide the correct keys when setting up on a new machine
4 - when searching for noStrudel on Google Play Store with filter set to minimum of 4.5 stars Amethyst is basically the only result - so that's why i went with it
it was probably the smoothest experience setting up a NOSTR client on a new device for me yet. it felt almost like setting up X on the same tablet - i pasted my NSEC in and it worked.
this literally never happened to me with NOSTR before.
