Nostr Web Client

If my random zap doesn't make it to my node, not really a big deal.

Also can use private relays so it's less of a problem.

For zaps it’s okay, but I’ve seen plenty of speculation about using it for General payment handling, which is definitely not a good direction. If we need something for this (we do) we should build something that’s robust and general, not “only works if you don’t care about reliability”.

If you’re using a private relay you might as well just use lnurl/http/onion messages/etc.

Luckily this kinda thing is pretty trivial with android intents (literally the bitcoinj payment channels from 7-8 years ago worked this way!) and iOS deep linking can do something similar. Order of magnitude less complexity than nostr if you don’t already have a nostr client.
