good call. nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg does seem to be powering forward, and that's while supporting web, android, and iphone. shout out to that team.
yes vc funding can do that, should I switch to that? Everyone seemed very adamant against it, even nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m . But now they’re taking off and damus is falling behind. Maybe I should have done if this is what everyone wanted to begin with?
I will try to build two apps regardless, but will be slower.
How you win is equally as important as winning. Who do you want to own Damus? I wouldn’t throw in the towel while you still have runway left.
i agree. sometimes it just comes down to survival.
don't get me wrong. i'm not criticizing the decision to not take vc money. i support that decision personally even though it makes development a little slower since you still need to support your family. honestly, i don't think damus should even be worried about developing for android. it's a solid ios client. focus there. we have a few on the android side that i think should stay just android and capitalize on that. primal having extra vc money allows them to develop and maintain for all platforms. all i was getting as is that there are other options. damus disappearing would be a severe bummer, but life will go on. i'm sure someone would fork it and keep developing it anyways. at the end of the day, you need to concentrate on what is important for your mental health and your family's needs.
also if nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m is gonna throw down that opinion, then he should help you out here and throw some shekels your way to keep you working on it, assuming that's what you wanna do.
