Building on NOSTR and Bitcoin

NostrDB 👀

Back on Nostr after a hiatus and Damus has improved a lot.

What’s the best iOS client for Nostr?

This is exciting nostr:note17w8hjkk2up40pdrltp66gd632zpg29j0v303c66c59k66vntdskqu3v2qr

Remove the option to send a percentage of zaps to Damus and the problem is solved. This isn’t about zaps. It’s about a portion of the zaps going to Damus. Add a tip jar in app purchase instead. nostr:note14vfvfnt8ynlp4qj2fcdt5t28judjypdnth83swmdhlythryw2seq2nuuh6

Damus isn’t getting banned for supporting zaps, it’s getting banned for sending sats to the dev. Apple was never going to allow this. nostr:note1k8vjtk9uxjtyms83wjh3n6wjfqtn2wdgssy622fdm77n0djtazwsrx6snc

Yo, I’m an iOS dev looking to pick up some more work. Any leads? Will work for sats 😃

Unfortunately, Yang is too weak. He couldn’t even win NYC mayor race. Although, our current VP is also a very weak candidate so.. 🤷‍♂️

. #[1]​ when is NostrDevKit coming? If the “hard” stuff like connecting to relays and all websocket connections is done once and really well in a framework, that would help drive adoption of more mobile clients. nostr:note1kx5t828jqd38pquc90edvw79tgv9yrwjn0dnt2lqafu9y50vd3nssut6vv

Some of the best mobile developers I know hate “crypto” and Nostr is just for “crypto bros.” How do we shake that narrative? All the mobile dev excitement is over in Mastodon land. nostr:note1nz6xrvm7w0vtv8t2l5unge5uj5nujgx7s76dt3h4zvsqnwrygdfqlyh8h6

Sorry for being so negative about this feature. I just don’t trust Apple. Keep up the great work man and let me know if you ever have any iOS dev questions.

I don’t know the specific rule and I don’t have time to go find it. But I’ve been an iOS dev for 10 years and I’ve tried doing shady stuff and they always reject it. Apple needs to let us install whatever software we want on these devices that cost $1000+! I think we can agree on that. I hate the App Store policies.

Oh no.. is this the update that gets Damus banned from the App Store?! nostr:note1r3hrjfqc623d8z35cthgkgfhrpvdl4fr7zssktj93mt8nj5mu2wsrwn6vr

This is for sending money to a user of the app and not the app’s developer. Apple will not let a dev accept payments to themselves via lightning. In app purchases only.

I don’t have high hopes that Apple will approve this. It could even be grounds to ban your Apple dev account completely and have Damus removed from the App Store. I would advise against adding this until the day Apple is forced to allow app side-loading.

I’m a lightning noob. What’s the best way to have self custody Lightning on iOS? ⚡️
