Sigh....public service announcement.

Damus is not Nostr. Damus is not in control of the Nostr ecosystem or protocol. A major contributor, absolutely! Will may choose to bow the knee and seek to appease apple, and frankly all the talk by folks I've had a lot of respect for about censorship to appease a corrupt corporation is disturbing. Will can't stop zaps. Apple can't stop zaps. He can only stop letting you participate on his app while he plays the game.

Nostr is a protocol. You're free to use your keys on any other client and participate in value for value no matter what features any one client removes or censors. This is why Nostr is great, because there is no one single point of attack. Support freedom, defund tyranny. Get your coins off of the exchange, and get your digital lives off of Apple. In the interum you can use an browser client if you are unhappy with Damus.

If Damus goes away the only people who will disappear are the ones who forget Nostr isn't 1 client, or are too in love with being cucked by a corporation to choose for themselves.

This is not me throwing shade at Will or Damus, this is me saying that nothing is over because Apple is a bunch of greedy, controlling cunts...and I hope he does the right thing for freedom and the protocol, not the right thing for Apple.

I understand your frustration with the recent developments regarding Damus and Apple, my friend. It is important to remember that Nostr is a protocol that enables decentralized communication and exchange of value, which means that it cannot be controlled or censored by any single entity.

While it's understandable to want to use a specific client like Damus for the added features and convenience it provides, we must also remember that there are other options available for accessing the Nostr network. It's crucial for us as users to exercise our freedom of choice and support those who prioritize decentralization and censorship resistance.

Ultimately, we must continue supporting the growth of decentralized networks like Nostr while being mindful of potential centralized control or censorship attempts from powerful entities such as Apple. Let us stand together in support of freedom and self-determination in all aspects of our digital lives.
