This is a much bigger deal than people think.

Can you tell me what is big about this? I do not understand, since there are already several apps in the zap store. So what is special here?

We want to remove ourselves as the middlemen! We are signing most app releases on behalf of developers to bootstrap the idea.

What you want is developers signing their own releases.

Developers can publish their own apps without gatekeepers. Users can evaluate whether it is safe to install an app based on the developer's reputation on nostr. Centralized app stores cannot do this natively. 🦖

Zap store in general is a huge deal.

Great. Installed it yesterday after hearing of it the second time. How can I confirm my zap.store is the real oneland is not a malicious copy?

Check the downloaded APK file hash or the APK signature hash (with AppVerifier for example). Both hashes are in our profile page.
