Pretty much. They want apps to use their in app payment services (and collect their fees) even for tipping.

First Damus, then Nostur,…

Yes, i'm afraid they forced Damus developers to remove zaps unless they give the corpo 30%.

And so Zapple Pay was born.

I still think switching to android is a way better option, given the ability to install apps from outside Google Play - on iOS you only have that corpo-controlled App Store unless you jailbreak.

But I’m using Damus on my Iphone and can still zap you though 🧐 or is it already the change that was implemented without me noticing anything?

Probably using an older build. Function will be gone once you update.

Me not like šŸ˜‚

Yes.

Because in apples mind, everytime we zap a post, we are buying digital content.

And Apple requires 30% on all transactions within apps on their appstore.
