Nostr Web Client

What’s the lowest barrier way around Apple control on Apple devices? I don’t think the long term solution is exiting Apple devices and I don’t think there is the economic power to make a meaningful difference.

ie. We can switch to android, but it’s more work for us than it is a loss for Apple. (That said you should still get an android based for these cases and to experiment, I have a pixel 5 for this reason)

But I’m curious what everyone thinks the lowest hanging fruit is here? Want to collect a bunch of ideas. Is it just going 100% web apps? Is there another clever work around? Share thoughts 👇🏻👇🏻

I feel like switching from apple to android is out of the frying pan and into the fire.

Right, you should definitely just sideload the apps you want on your iPhone.

This. Even if Nostr issues are completely solved, there are still tons of other issues with mobile platforms. Complete lack of privacy is probably the biggest issue, but there are also many limitations and controls on what you can and can't do with phones. The fact is, you are paying for a computer+radios that you don't really own and have very little control over. Android + GrapheneOS is a partial solution, but it's difficult and there are still issues with the base hardware. There is no easy solution in the mobile space and it's not clear that anyone really wants one.
