Damus will be removed from the app store in 14 days, apple says zaps are not allowed on their platform because they *could* be used by content creators to sell digital content. This is right before I’m about to give my talk at the oslo freedom forum on how decentralized social networks with lightning integration are bringing financial freedom to the masses... pretty sus… 😕

This would be a watershed moment: If people can’t transact freely p2p on their platform, this has huge implications for the entire ecosystem of apps with lightning integration and v4v.

Apple want their cut… Any way to speak to Apple to see if there is a workable solution. This is all super new so I don’t think the door should just close. Dialogue first.

That sucks. What’s the difference with Reddit Moons on the r/cryptocurrencies sub. Content creators are literally paid in moons for their posts. They do have a monetary value. And what about the upcoming Twitter coin?

If you use electronics controlled by others, it's only a matter of time before they use it to control you. Bitcoiners need to stop reacting to things like this and act ahead of time. Use Graphene.

You don't own that fancy new iPhone you bought, Apple does along with various governments. It works for them, not you.

They want their cut. Fuck’em, remove zaps and put a QR code up instead.

Oh wow. This is indeed a watershed moment. Pay attention everyone. This is the full "and then they fight you" moment. nostr:nevent1qqs2kykye4njfls6sf9yux4694rewxezqke4mncc8dkmlj9m3j89gvspr9mhxue69uhhwetvvdhk6efwdehhxarj9emkjmn99upzqvhpsfmr23gwhv795lgjc8uw0v44z3pe4sg2vlh08k0an3wx3cj9qvzqqqqqqyjm90w6

Why isn’t this seen like Venmo? You aren’t buying anything. Just sending some value. Venmo and PayPal are fine. Zaps are the same.

"Steve Jobs, the pioneer of the computer as a jail made cool, designed to sever fools from their freedom, has died. As Chicago Mayor Harold Washington said of the corrupt former Mayor Daley, "I'm not glad he's dead, but I'm glad he's gone." Nobody deserves to have to die - not Jobs, not Mr. Bi...

#[1]​ - sorry to hear. As #[2]​ often says - this is a reflection/perfect example of rent seeking behaviour, and value extraction, as opposed to genuinely creating value (what you are so nobly doing with Damus). Keep fighting the good fight, we will win in the end 🙌🚀

Slightly unpopular opinion but the web is and always will be the only place to resist the extra layers of sensorship from companies ( DNS not included ofcourse ). Thank you guys for this client hope to see a web version of it! 🔥

It's Apple. I hate them. (I was an Apple user from 2006 to 2021.) Apple and Nintendo have exactly one thing in common: If it doesn't profit them, it shall be gone. If they can't monetize it, it must be banned. I really hoped Damus would stay on iOS but... Hey, EU might have their way and Damus can...

It is the Apple dictatorship. If we are here, in Nostr, it is because we love democracy and freedom ⚡
