So removal from App Store doesnβt necessarily mean removal from iPhone correct!?
Sooooo what Iβm hearing is we needa onboard every fucking body in the next 14 days π
But um future updates how is that handled ? We grab the new update directly from website or directly from app ?? nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s
Unfortunately, Apple eventually ends functionality of apps that have been removed. So eventually, it will still disappear
Unfortunately if that happens, we have to switch clients. But will said heβs removing zaps so that doesnβt happen
I think it means just no more updates. Gives me a reason why I want to jailbreak my phone now
Been dying to jailbreak mines
That might help
It means Apple killed Damus. Without zaps, people wonβt use Damus.
The truth is, if youβre on Apple, Windows, google, Android youβre captured.
What Iβm saying is letβs say apple does remove Damus from App Store doesnβt remove it from our iPhones, we can still use zaps and everything will be cool, and maybe the distribution of future builds doesnβt happen on the App Store instead on the website or inside the app itself
Convenience really matters. We could also be pen pals and write checks to each and send them via the post office. π€£π
Wym.. whatβs so inconvenient about clicking an update button on a website ? or having it send you an email with the update ? Or even easier having it update from within the app itself ?? seems pretty convenient to me man, idk I ainβt lazy like that
how will new users use damus?
Thereβs this thing called side loading apps basically can download straight from Damus website https://www.lifewire.com/get-apps-not-in-app-store-1999916#:~:text=your%20iOS%20device.-,Sideloading%20Apps,do%20things%2C%20but%20it's%20possible.
I understand this but , the real question is why? like why do we need to go through all of this? A simpler & easy solution should be available for all. Freedom.
Not entirely true. On any other of the major OS you can download binaries and install them to your system. This is a problem tied to the iOS app store monopoly, and the lack of user freedom regarding software installation.
Side loading may be possible. If it is banned there will be no way to update, even if you have it installed already. The store is Apple's, the phone is Apple's, so they decide. What a horrible decision by Apple. Feeling bad for my whole using friends π«π
Sideload ..or we gonna use xcode.
That makes sense
Or maybe we can make our own app store , soon apple will be forced to accept sideload in EU.
I wonder how hard it can be to fork it
Is not that hard ..look at the pirated app store, they still exist.
Mhmmm built on nostr sounds so good.. nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft any idea how long does can take n how many devs
IMO ..a progressive web application, will be the easiest solution..and we can say #fuckyouapple
Start9 said that was the only solution idk
Yes ..and then #damus will be available on ALL devices π
Itβll prob never happen Will doesnβt like web apps
I knew..but we have to think of mass adoption of damus, to be easy and convenient to use. Self uploading on xcode..is not for everyone, maybe then sideload is the solution.
Letβs see what he comes up with, thereβs a couple solutions on the table π«‘
This is a lesson..we don't have to rely on apple, it cannot be trusted. ( speaking of my own experience in the past with my old apps)
Yeah this will definitely awaken devs to try and build a decentralize client marketplace for IOS hopefully, or something more innovative n cool that works n doesnβt rely on App Store
Snort
Don't onboard new plebs into an environment where they can't see any new updates. I hope they figure it out, but I would onboard new plebs to an app they may not be able to use or update.
β¦ we donβt know it canβt be updated but sure letβs call it quits before anyone tries finding a solution lol
Not saying that, but I am saying consider that bad shit COULD happen. It took most of us more than 14 days to even grasp what is happening here, I'd hate for a noob to be totally lost in an upheaval.
