Like Windows, iOS must die. Either open-source it or GTFO.

Google Android too to be fair

I'm too tarded to use Linux 🥺

Nah, it's not that bad with a beginner friendly distro. I'd make a recommendation, but I'm not entirely sure what's typically recommended for newbs these days. I think Mint is a good one still?

Mint is a great beginner 👌🏼

I use Ubuntu but only in a virtual machine

No. You are too cucked my Microsoft or some other proprietary software to use Linux. You are too afraid to learn something new, or so lazy that you prefer wrestling with software that dicks yout around. But no one is too tarded to use Linux. Just use Linux.

Wow thanks that is so encouraging man you really swayed me

jk, Linux is only for elite professionals with massive brains! 🧐Don't even try using it; you will be totally lost without "Windows searching for a solution to your problem" or rebooting when it decides to install updates. 😈

They keep playgrounds, and pubs seperate for a reason 😅.

Let the apple kiddos play on the swings.

GTFO, don't get it 😩

I’m biased here as I love iOS, but agree with your point. Too bad we don’t have something open source that is actually good and not owned by a big corporation

What are you doing that you think can't be reasonably done on Linux?

Oh I was taking about iOS in the mobile space, at least personally don’t think Android is a replacement. I saw a while back a new phone with e-ink which looked amazing but it was android so not really impressive

You , the one with a really long name , I like your name 😁

You need to set up wallet though ..

I am also very biased sometimes

I would love for something to give another 5 years of life to my iPhone 13; community supported, open source that would get me out of Apple ecosystem but don’t know about anything that could be used

My sister was using my iPhone 7 until I got her a 15 Pro last year. Your iPhone 13 will last until 2030.

I hope so! I’m thinking of getting a new battery though

Its called Linux and graphene os.....

I need to look into this! Thanks!🙏

Can Graphene work for someone like my mother with zero configuration or programming skills? If not, it unfortunately will never have widespread adoption

Yes, it's identical to android, just has additional privacy controls for advanced users.

Ok thank you. I will likely give it a try soon

Graphene is android, and android is absolute garbage if you want to do anything complex. We need a FOSS alternative to android that has root access default.

I love the iOS ux but Im also a Linux lover you are 100% right.

Yes, Tim Apple go fuck yourself

agreed!

Die is too extreme ! Deprecated or so …😁

Nah.. all tyranny must end.

Wanna no die? Open da source.

Whoever created this primal app is genius 😁

Yikes

Right now testing iOS apps to better help onboard people. Can confirm this is absolute fiat shit at every level. Can’t zap, can’t login with a key management app. Have to use some script or some browser extension, and it’s all very “trust me bro.”

It’s an awful experience. Apple makes Nostr suck. I’d go back to TikTok. “We need better onboarding!” Fuck that, we need to ditch Apple’s bullshit completely.

They are trying to make that features ( zap,⚡️ , DM , video and so on ) as project in 2025 . If you care to look at Damus io and look for Notedeck . You will see what kind of project they try to work on . nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s

The OS will still severely limit what Notedeck can do. There is no way around it.

Yeah true

Yes, Nostur is most similar to Amethyst. Key management is balls unless I just haven’t found that feature yet, but Primal and Damus are fully hobbled. Zaparmy script works but makes me open some other Apple-approved bullshit wallet app. If I’m doing it wrong so is every noob and it sucks for them. Apple is assho.

Yes, my experience was that the fuck-faces @ Apple had made it impossible for Damus/Primal to implement NWC well enough to work. I could be wrong about this however.

Just like how your app is limiting my nostr experience

Cool I can test muting on Apple now.

Lol yes.

Could you be more specific then?

Intents are super basic and very slow. It renders them useless for most real tasks.

There is no nostr:nprofile1qqs83nn04fezvsu89p8xg7axjwye2u67errat3dx2um725fs7qnrqlgzqtdq0, no ability to run a relay locally, no ability to run blossom locally, no ability to share events between apps, no ability to buy Bitcoin without using Apple's wallet, no ability to be free at all.

Fuck me. My dude I just zapped with Nostur, after FINALLY figuring it out, and this bitch made a thunderclap noise and a full screen lightning strike with a 21 flashing. That was the coolest shit I’ve seen so far. We gonna need that on Amethyst please.

Holy shit yes how much for a lightning strike 🤣

Horrible, let's dump Apple. We need a Linux mobile computing Platform to emerge.

Multiple mobile #Linux OSes already: #postmarketOS, #PureOS, #Mobian, etc.

Not ready for mass adoption yet? I agree, you get what you pay for, and they get nothing compared to iOS and Android budgets.

fvck apple!

sent from primal on iPhone

yes apple is very much against freedom

Damus and Primal are so sexy to look at. Right now Nostur is a better Nostr experience, but not quite doing me up on the sex part.

the mental and digital gymnastics we apple users have to go through to larp how we love freedom smdh

Apple is the TickTock of operating systems

Had the same experience with www.bitcoin-safe.org code signing.

I hear your pain. I tried quite a lot on iOS until realizing that nostr:npub1yzvxlwp7wawed5vgefwfmugvumtp8c8t0etk3g8sky4n0ndvyxesnxrf8q with NWC was rock-solid on iOS -- this is the writeup of that journey: https://rizful.com/get_on_nostr_today

Running #Bitcoin and #Nostr on Apple products is like hiding in the closet and watching freedom fuck your wife.

Hacking iPhone and installing Linux on it ?

💯

I don't understand why someone should trust a closed source operating system in the first place...

⚡️OPEN-SOURCE EVERYTHING!⚡️

Well, then android should stop being absolute shit. Maybe there should be a FOSS OS not based on shitdroid. I’ll keep buying iPhones until there is another alternative to android

With apple products you pay to be in a jail, at least android let you do whatever you want

Well the fact is that apple products are more reliable. I’ve gone through 4 Pixels, only my pixel 6 pro still works. My iPhone 4, my first smartphone, still works.

Apple Watch and AirPods are significantly better than the android equivalents. FaceID is better than a fingerprint scanner especially if you have a job

What open source mobile OS do you recommend?

Regular Android if you are coming iOS and then Graphene once you get used to Android.

I've been using Graphene for almost 2 years now and love it. #FOSS

I think I’ve heard of graphene, I’ll have to deep dive that! Thank you for the recommendation 📱

Thank you, well said.

iOS defenders: Ohh no how can you say that, it has such a pretty UI, animations, certainly you can give up your freedom for all that.

Better: make them irrelevant.
