Enshittification is when an online platform becomes more monetized and less user-oriented the longer it lasts. The term was theorized by Canadian writer and thinker Cory Doctorow to describe the trajectory of platforms like TikTok, Amazon and Twitter. He argued that platforms start out serving users by offering features that lure them in, then they serve advertisers and third parties by offering ad targeting and deals, and lastly they serve themselves and their shareholders by cheating and exploiting both advertisers and users. Doctorow calls this process "enshittification."
How do you feel about enshittification? Seems like #nostr is set up well to avoid falling into that trap.

It’s great; enjoy!
nostr:npub1sm9xgupw9ejwsddflq8ll7773yzc0mjcsp5xypw4h4k6c7pgav9sn5yn0r Sorry don’t know the answer to your specific question. But… Not sure android is any more secure that iOS (there are those who will claim it is not, but I am no security researcher), but why not consider a 3rd party password management tool (I believe several of them either already or will support passkeys. )
Thanks for the response! Yea I’m also just trying to speculate on how Apple could implement passkeys longer term.
I use nos2x on the web and like how that works on web clients.
A lot of folks on Nostr have been installing GrapheneOS on Android phones to make it more secure than stock, so that’s what I’ve been considering.
This new limitation by Twitter requiring people to have an account to even see a tweet severely limits the reach of their users’ content, as only Twitter’s own user base can see them now. There is no longer such thing as a public profile. #Nostr fixes this.

They really are trying to speedrun burning birdapp to the ground.
Good advice. Thanks!
Going to switch to Android when I upgrade, but does anyone know if Apple’s passkey feature for iOS17 would make it easier to switch between iOS Nostr clients? (I understand giving my private key to Apple is also bad).
Or do current iOS apps only store the private key client side already?
Apologies if these are dumb questions, but I’m a little hesitant to give each app on iOS my private key. #nostr #apple #asknostr
gm all! #coffeechain ☕️ 🌞
No they’re still stored on other Nostr relays you’re a part of so you can move to a different iOS or web or android app for nostr and still access your history, followers, following, etc
