just because I am temporarily working on our android version doesn't mean "all energy" has left the project. both swift and daniel are working on it and are adding lots of features (recently: multi image upload, push notifications). our milestone the past month has been improving less sexy things like onboarding, starter packs, etc. I've been also working on profile pages and nip05 on damus io links so that we can have more reach outside of our nostr bubble.
For damus to be successful it needs to go beyond the walled garden of apple. Incremental changes to iOS would lead to us running out of money and failing. nostur already has tons of features, so for people who want incremental changes of more and more features can use nostur. At damus we're trying to build a recognizable brand and ecosystem of apps that work together.
