“IF BITCOIN IS SUCCESSFUL APPLE WILL BAN THE APPS. WE SHOULD JUST USE APPLE PAY.”

“IF NOSTR IS SUCCESSFUL APPLE WILL BAN THE APPS. WE SHOULD JUST USE X.”

BOTH TAKES SHOW A LACK OF UNDERSTANDING OF OPEN PROTOCOLS AND OPEN SOURCE CLIENTS.

DO BETTER. BE BETTER. FREE MEN DO NOT ASK PERMISSION.

ONWARD. WITHOUT PERMISSION. 🫡

GM.

preach ✊

Free men do not ask permission 🫡.

Amen brother

Shots fired Parker lolll

GM Major 🫡 #NostrOnly

It's all in the hands of Tim Apple, huh? What a bummer.

I guess Tim Apple is the most powerful person in the world since he can just ban all the apps including X, so let’s all just capitulate in advance.

LFGGGGGGGGG🫡

PWA > native app for this reason.

In brazil there's no X anymore, I hope the state bans instragram and tiktok too. Banning fiat in unlikely lol

Everyone buys in at the price they deserve. There is no free lunch.

FREE MEN DON'T SIMP

FREE MEN USE OPEN PROTOCOLS

It’s as if he has equity shares in X

Shut down my fav nostr app? Arrest the CEO?

My account still works. My notes are still there.

The purple honey badger don’t care.

Is the nostr fader the new Bcasher?

Pretty much

You don’t need “Apps” for anything.

All apps do is call back to a server that you can access with a browser.

Few

What if some people just want to be controlled and manipulated? 🤔😂

This misunderstanding will be resolved through conversation, and I’m glad we’ve hit this juncture.

Onward 🚀

Asking permission is seeking denial ;-)

Your view assumes that the majority want to be free men.

Apple dropped their own BNPL and opened up to 3rd party BNPL. Only a question of time before Apple opens up to bitcoin and becomes a lightning competitor. Same with X becoming a competitor to Primal on nostr.

Thank you nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx! I’ve made some decent amount of fiat over the years, but these first 42 sats I’ve ever received mean the world to me. 🙏 🫡

Permission??? Do what tickles your fancy. Play with a virus, get ill. I'm here with the healthy kids!

Agree to agree

who even is parker lewis?

Good question 😅

Parker Lewis is my hero

Short-lived sitcom on Fox in the early 90s. They could walk through a locker into a secret radio station or something? 🤷‍♂️

THIS LINE OF THINKING IS STRAIGHT STOCKHOLM SYNDROME

THEY ALSO USED TO TELL ME, GOVERNMENT WILL NEVER ALLOW BITCOIN......................

Crazy how even after watching #Bitcoin knock down every piece of FUD throughout its history the exact same arguments are regurgitated all over again with #Nostr.

Separates the builders from the followers.

This feels like justification to buy more #BitAxe

Don’t be like Parker

Free women don't ask permission. Free men are supportive of that.

We already won 💪

And you don’t need a native app to use nostr. Both nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg and nostr:npub1sn0rtcjcf543gj4wsg7fa59s700d5ztys5ctj0g69g2x6802npjqhjjtws have web clients. And probably more are out there I’m not aware of.

The age of #permission is over.

The age of #freedom has already begun.

However, the years ahead are full of #darkness and the only light will emerge through #freedomtechnology.

Unfortunately, during the last few years there are many who have lost their eyesight and cannot tell darkness from #light.

We need to share our #Vision with them.

#wearetheWORDL, #BUIDL & #HODL

If the apps get banned, my browser goes brrrr.

everyone should use graphene os

Very Strong 💪

I support this all caps freedom yelling.

NostrPay (cashu) and NostrLogin will dominate.

The circular economy will gain traction when incentives are lined up.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau:

“Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains.”

We are Legion 🫡

Most Bitcoin apps were banned by the app store. Somehow there was enough pressure to reinstate them.

Bitcoiners who keep asking for permission don’t really understand BITCOIN.

💯

This is the ultimate defeatist, pussified take.

If you bail on freedom because you are worried it’ll be “removed from the App Store” then you never cared about it to begin with. You *deserve* to lose it.

Laughs in F-Droid.

Both show a lack of intellectual curiosity (at best) and (more likely) a toxic attachment to the status quo that will keep a large number of people from a proactively better life, until they desperately, reactively choose it because they need it, or (at worst) an intentional desire to block something that is a threat to their own position of power or control.

Lopp ( nostr:npub17u5dneh8qjp43ecfxr6u5e9sjamsmxyuekrg2nlxrrk6nj9rsyrqywt4tp) asked him the question i was wondering when i read that: shutting Bitcoin service providers or outright mining bans doesnt kill the network. Seems to be making a case around censorship resistance and PoW. Was surprised because i thought he had a solid history of Bitcoin-only advocacy

For some reason Parker thinks nostr isn't censorship resistant because it doesn't have PoW. He probably doesn't know there is a PoW NIP. He also probably hasn't considered that nostr's tight integration with lightning can act as a form of PoW (imposing economic costs on certain actions.)

PoW can cost as little as a single sat

Everyone deserves Nostr at the level of cope they deserve.

Learning this in my business right now. Looking at a restructuring everything from the public to the private.

Once you learn “there are two of everything” it’s hard to go back!

Private is always better than public, giving you full control (as long as you don't have a board that backstabs). PMA's do ever better in that regard from what I've heard.

A man that knows the stuff “they” don’t want us too!

Yea I’m working on drafting a private express trust that is an “unincorporated business organization” / PMA as you point out

Just have to carve out the time to do so

it does say something about Apple

“Free men don’t ask permission”. That is right.

There is a way of saying this without coming across like a rapist but for some weird reason you decided against it.

booya!

Chad.

think he's doing it for the engagement? I've never had a blue check on Twitter but don't they pay for engagement?

what's engagement get you?

whatever increases your twitter check

Well you’re free until she tells the cops😅

Matt i’m right with you fuck X

However

Yes

I’d rather use Apple Pay with fiat than spend the hardest money ever made

I know that wasn’t your point I’m just ranting

It doesn’t seem smart to spend a scarce asset that only goes up over the long term on any significant purchase

Why wouldn’t a person just use fiat

So yes

Im all for freedom tech

But I won’t be convinced to spend my bitcoin in the name of freedom tech

Like “hey you own a scarce asset that will only go up over the long term spend it on discretionary items to stick it to the system”

No thanks

life changing event major life upgrade then fine I get it

Bullshit … why?

So yes .. I still want my Apple Pay and my Freedom

There is no way to stop this technology

U know I think the next is apps installed from the browser

"FREE MEN DO NOT ASK PERMISSION". AMEN!! 🫂 💜 🫡

go ahead, take what you want. 🫡

I like it. But really we're all slaves. If we don't do tax paper work watch what happens.

So true

How free are you if your stack is KYC

*We (People, Bitcoiners)

*They (People, Government)

We all understand why they can block the protocols, we know that they are more interested in controlling us than in developing natural technologies and protocols.

We also know that there are still very few of us, less than one percent, we know that most of us are not government officials or military, we know that we do not have weapons, so we try to be anonymous, but not all of us do everything we need to be safe.

And we also know that we are not understood, that they do not understand what we are talking about until we explain it for an hour, that some people think we are strange, aliens, or worse, cultists. Doesn't this remind you of anything?!!

I think that when we think like this, we harm ourselves, we dig our own grave. We have to stop doing this. Because now is the moment when everything has to change.

We need to get out of our rabbit hole as soon as possible, create more simple instructions and involve as many people as possible... and preferably, these people should be "them". We need to stop separating money and the state, us and them. Otherwise, they will declare war on us, and you yourself write about it. Let's go to all governments with books, let's create programs for them. Let's create our future world without any wars.

Let us become them.

You always need permission from your internet provider. All of them are 100 % state controlled.

strong caps, apple and x have small market shares compared to the biggest, i see apple shrinking x growing a bit then shrinking

p2p will shake down everything, facebook will be hit worst
