The fact that zaps got “censored” on Apple platforms and within days the Nostriches had multiple uncensorable workarounds is fucking hilarious to me. 🤣

I’ve been using nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 this whole time and I lost zaps for a total of maybe a few hours.

excellent

Ungovernable

Same. 😂 Not even a few hours for me, it was minutes, as I just rolled back TestFlight before the ban and rocked that version until it expired.

Was it buggy AF after a while? Totally.

Was it worth it? Hell yeah it was. 🤙

I didn’t even roll anything back, just never updated until it expired, then updated to the new one and added that script thing, bam! Zaps back! Damus is awesome!

Love it!

What workaround are you using with Damus?

maybe this?

nostr:note1d5ee9agv27mde6sfp3rgd2squqt5z8xcf2lr8e8hztzgh74m20ssj7cedy

Only works if you are the testflight** you can download the testflight from Damus.io I think at the bottom of the page

I didn’t think I was on TestFlight for Damus, are you sure it’s TestFlight only?

Oh damn you’re right. I’ve not got the App Store version installed.

Correct, gotta get the TF version.

Is this documented somewhere other than a random nostr note?

Does anyone have the script you run for this? I can’t seem to find it at the moment in my links. nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s I know you e got it sitting around somewhere 😆

I think I sent it to you in a previous thread. I have it bookmarked for people.

What’s the fix ?

nostr:note1mz69mtql6vggldckvhyrtpp6hvyjwfzfxwv0r7jgwx08hyf9swmst9x3up

How do I get my zaps back ?

nostr:note1mz69mtql6vggldckvhyrtpp6hvyjwfzfxwv0r7jgwx08hyf9swmst9x3up

Damn it didn’t work. Any other work arounds?

Indeed 😁

I zapped this note from Damus using the script-reactivated zap feature AND zapple pay at the same time, holy shit I’m so fucking devious

But....

Why support Apple to begin with?

It’s a network & platform with an absolutely insane amount of people on it. IMO, saying we should all just abandon it and leave the iPhoners with no options is like saying we should write the best book in the world but refuse to print a version in English.

In addition, I love my MacBook M1. Apple makes awesome hardware. The iPhone on the other hand is replaceable, it’s good, but nothing magical. There are some great android devices too. The Mac hardware however is extremely hard to beat, their application ecosystem is hugely valuable especially for media production, and Windows as an alternative OS is just a joke, imo. Linux is solid and it’s free… as long as you don’t value your time. h/t nostr:npub1utx00neqgqln72j22kej3ux7803c2k986henvvha4thuwfkper4s7r50e8

I have various issues/problems/privacy & control concerns with Google, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, and all the major social platforms. I pick my battles.

Lol what’s up? No love for Linux??

I actually love Linux 🤣

But I also hate it viciously about 33% of the time

damn i feel attacked by that linux bit

Don't feel that way, mac people are insufferably smug about their walled garden. Enjoy your freedom.

to each their own. i loved my macbook air back in the day. used it mainly for music production. but i will never use another OS besides linux now. full on penguinpilled lmao

Lol, I try to give a thorough answer and have 2 custom Linux machines in my house (plus 2 small Linux based nodes) but because I like Mac hardware and have one MacBook for media production - seeing as I run a media production company - then we just boil it all down to “smug Mac person.” 🤣🤣🤣

I appreciate the deep, intelligent commentary 😘

I also kinda find it ironic how smug your comment is when I wasn’t being smug at all. Just giving my honest opinion.

If you aren’t just being smug & actually know of a good laptop that will run Linux and not lose functionality (a lot of windows touchpads I found have problems when swapping to Linux), I would actually LOVE to hear about it. I am so sick of plastic, creaky shit laptops I want to pull my hair out. I wasted at least 3 months trying to find a laptop that felt good and was comparable and came up with nothing.

Have you looked at https://system76.com/laptops/lemur ?

Yeah. My brother has one and it’s decent, but still just not quite there. I’m super picky about the look and feel of my hardware

Seems like I hit a nerve there, sorry. As for hardware, I always prefer Lenovo laptops, ThinkPad specifically. I moved to one when I switched from Apple, never looked back. My last MacBook Air is still doing a good job running Debian too.

I wish Linux could properly take advantage of Apple Silicon. I’d probably dual boot if it did.

Oooh shit!

Lol, I say this as a Linux enthusiast. Don’t hate you know it’s true 🤣

People will hate you for pointing this out, but it's truth imo.

But can you zap individual notes on iOS?

(Asking because I sourced a pixel 7 to run GrapheneOS just zap better)

You can 🤫

I’ve got Calyx on a Pixel right now but planning on moving to Graphene. 👏🏻

But yes I can zap individual notes. With the TestFlight version you can run a script that is external to the app and it turns it back on. Then there is ZapplePay that zaps automatically every time you like a post.

🤔

Freedom of choice technology. Why I like #nostr.

Also zapped.

Yes. This is beautiful

Just gonna leave this right here…

@note1f39s48krv253p8r8kej7ygl79fpupv7t7vz6vg7vn60fvx943lpq6ku0gw

how do i get this

nevermind i’m stupid

And yet they allow wallet apps. Go figure.

I'm unable to get the script to work. I tap the "On" button on the webpage. Phone asks if I want to open in Damus. I tap "Open". I'm taken to Damus. Nothing appears to happen. Cannot see any way to directly zap a note. Restart Damus. Still no luck.

Care to share what workaround you are using?

Governments and companies try to ban Bitcoin...

Bitcoiners:

What is your preferred mobile app that you can zap on?

I’m using Primal on my iPad, but I can’t get my wallet to connect on the iPhone.

The Apple's of the world will all come to realise they stand no chance against decentralised networks. Got my popcorn ready to watch them get on their knees 😎🍿

Because nostriches are buidlt differently. ;)

An idea whose time has come cannot be stopped.

lots of great people dedicated to the nostr protocol and it's fun as a user to see changes happening in real time at lightning speed :-D

Facts 😂

Bitcoin already won
