Nostr Web Client

People who respond with “make a PWA instead”, you are missing the point.

The point is not that we can’t circumvent this. We can stop doing things on iOS or simply not have zaps on posts.

The point is that every single app can no longer add zaps to posts. This is a big blow for the zap economy model. It means no other apps can explore what it would mean to support work with instant p2p payments. This is a blow to the future of lightning payments, marketplaces, creator economy.

There are 1.5 BILLION active iPhone users. To say, fuck Apple, let’s just do X instead is to say who cares about 19% of the world’s population.. we don’t need them in the bitcoin micropayments economy.

This demands a big response. I am not sure we are making it a big enough deal. There must be A LOT more noise happening right now.

Bitcoiners who do not understand this need to wake the fuck up.

You mean to say that one has to build tools for those who don't care about the circular economy of Bitcoin and Nostr, instead of focusing on improving it for those who want it?

This statement doesn't make any sense to me.

I think the ones who need to wake up are not the ones who hold this opinion sincerely.

It's like begging the tyrant, please stop robbing us. We must use the most powerful word in the world "NO!" but also take action and use and create systems and solutions that give us freedom. There are those that not only don't love freedom but hate it, because it means responsibility. We can't save them, they have the freedom to choice of continue being slaves.

Idk who is right on this one to be honest. But I've always hated Apple. One operating system for all devices, making it impossible to use older devices once updated, making users buy new devices for every second or third software upgrade, and not to mention only apple can fix your device (maybe not anymore). It all seems a bit communist to me. One provider, one software, and one solution to fixes. Not a fan. I like having options.

It really does suck for all those iPhone users though.

Their cameras are the best on the market tho.

That sucks and we only can change by not using them and not building on them.
