Nostr Web Client

The nostr groupies are gonna hate this but -

I enjoyed Nostr much more 18 months ago when it was easy and straightforward to zap.

I enjoyed it more when the apps were experimental and developing, before the influencers centralized everyone around Primal.

I enjoyed it more when Twitter was much more of an absolute signalless helscape than it is now.

I still like it here and its worth the time to keep building here but I don't think the experience is better today. Zaps need to come back and be made a lot easier.

Do you use nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcprdmhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vfwde3x7tnpdenkzmnf9e3k75xqss4 to zap from your own self hosted node? It literally can't get any easier.

Primal is in the Ten31 portfolio so of course I don't go anywhere near that nor recommend it 🤷

Yeah but i have to be on a computer to zap from Alby. The apps that I used to use like Damus don't allow zapping.

I'm sorry you're handicapped by Apple.

Apple doesn't allow the zapping. There are ways around it. nostr:nprofile1qqs9ccktnl7c4fcfrvyemxqfgs5a9gj8q8hm0h4ed3wt36xl0dpf7ygpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3qamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wd3skueqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejscg0f2u got it working on Damus the other day.

Just ran the script and tested it. This is awesome

Zap.army. It looks sketchy, but nostr:npub16e3vzr7dk2uepjcnl85nfare3kdapxge08gr42s99n9kg7xs8xhs90y9v6 said it was legit.

You can Zap in Damus but it isn’t enabled by default due to Apple’s restrictions. There is a script to enable it:

Thanks - I knew this was out there but couldn’t track the script down
