What if somebody made a nostr micro app that looked at your reactions and sent a zap every time you had a reaction. This wouldn’t need to be in Damus, but because Apple will allow lightning wallet integration, and zaps based on profiles, but not posts, you can still put in your address and do a wallet connect. But then users could use a service, using nostr, but not created by any of the developers working with apple, to do a zaps for reactions service.

Should be pretty easy to do with Nostr Wallet Connect, no?

The only downside is I bet Apple probably wouldn’t let you link to or mention it in the app…

This sounds great. And you never know they may just go for it, you’ll never know if you never try!

They don’t allow you to link to outside sites for payments if they would consider the payment an in-app purchase. I think the best solution is making the profile picture the zap button, and, unfortunately, not showing zap counts on notes.

There could be an auto onboarding dm from the damus account explaining it 🤷‍♂️

Isn’t that pretty much exactly what wallet context is? A “zap” is just an event that another service reads and sends a lightning transaction on your behalf (after giving it permissions)

Or just boycott apple and support companies that allow people to enjoy simple features.

What’s the rational from Apple to allow zaps on profiles but not on notes? I suspect that any attempt to circumvent this tolerance will lead to a stricter interpretation of the in-app purchase rule.

This seems to be cool workaround. But we should have to think about workarounds like this in the first place. I understand Apple's reaction. Things like this can make or break their empire. In the same way that RFK Jr and Trump won't be allowed to participate in the presidential election.

It sounds like you are proposing something like "zaps" (or positive reactions, whatever it may be called) as nsec-signed promissory notes (or alternatively, "votes") which are then redeemed by a separate, loosely coupled service attached to a lightning wallet. This would replace considering "zaps" a...
