“On June 13, 2023 the once-great Apple made the fatal decision to prohibit the free exchange of value on #nostr client @Damus , lest the app be removed from Apple’s walled garden. This asinine attack on #bitcoin -based feedback would ultimately lead to Apple’s downfall.”

It could really backfire on Apple’s sales going forward if users changed to an android phone because they want to carry on using Nostr unimpeded
Apple be like...
Here IOs users...
Have a beer on us.


They better crank that wheel… 

Open software always have this effect on people.
I switched to Android a couple years ago. Best phone decision ever. Got sick of the walled garden and ecosystem trap.
apple Crabapple....
Terms and conditions...


I've seen it in the bones
Would #[1] move to progressive web app?
The hardware/software combo still makes the experience on Apple is 1000x better.
Walled garden definitely sucks but it's a game of tradeoffs.
Nah I've had a superior experience on Android since the switch. No updates that make my battery worse. No forced updates that turn off my network that left me stranded when I needed GPS. I can freely develop apps and not have to buy overpriced apple computers. I have actual control over my phone's file system. My music isn't held hostage on a proprietary music app like iTunes. I also get new features first. Apple is always playing catch up with Android.
I've hated Apple for a very long time & have never invested in any of their products.
Now I am glad.
