One of my biggest regrets in life is not making sure that Damus wasn’t going to auto update and having zaps to notes taken from me 😖🔫

My next phone WILL 100% fs not be a IPhone because 🖕🏽🍎unless they 180 their stance on #Bitcoin and fully embrace . They don’t care about my opinion but they will be forced to capitulate or die one day

It absolutely sucks that this was forced on us without any reasonable dialogue, just “Follow our rules because we say so.”

I’m glad we can use nostr:npub1wxl6njlcgygduct7jkgzrvyvd9fylj4pqvll6p32h59wyetm5fxqjchcan and I really hope nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s and the nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 crew can overcome this obstacle down the road because it’s just too good of an app to abandon. I got an Android recently so I can play around with different clients, but nothing has convinced me to make a complete switch at this point.

I remain hopeful because back in 2014 Apple blocked most #bitcoin wallets from the App Store but later reversed that policy. What needs to happen now are probably some high-level conversations between prominent entrepreneurs in bitcoin and the team at Apple to show them what zaps are and why this core part of the #nostr experience can’t be replaced with a debit card running on fiat rails.

You can downgrade Damus to earlier versions with TestFlight or if you prefer the latest version (I do) but still want the ability to send zaps I made www.zapr.social

Once setup (2 mins) you can just double tap the back of your iPhone to zap a note ⚡️
