Anyone developing new apps for #nostr should be making PWAs. This time where apps can still get in Appstores at all will be fleeting, it’s the easiest way for the State to restrict Nostr and they will play that card.

They’ll go after relays too no doubt but that will prove a more difficult game of whackamole

I agree in part. In Brazil, specifically, Android's market share is likely close to 85%. I feel that a PWA might be more burdensome than a native app in this case.. Sure, they can't ban you from the app stores, but then you'd need to install a VPN just to use it. Sharing Android apks, I think, would be easier.

I'm considering that the app itself could include some features to bypass censorship.

I think zap.store will be easier to use than Obtainium or downloading APKs from github for this average user
