This is a UX challenge with the subscription-based protocol. When data is coming in at unpredictable times over a web socket there’s nothing for a pull-to refresh button to do.
It might be nice at startup though to have a visual indicator that the app is waiting for incoming data (more than the dot on tab items). Like the Damus icon at the top gently glowing or something like that.
