That system is dead.
Don’t build on dead.
this is my struggle. i get paid to integrate with the legacy system but i truly want to build the future

yes
integrating with the legacy financial system will have the larger impact at scale.
The "not your keys not your coins" non-custodial dogma is for those on the privelged side of the digital divide and ignores most of those in the global south. The vast majority of those introduced to bitcoin, or onboarding, is from a fiat onramp and to a custodial wallet. Over time the user will want to learn more / technically proper ways of managing their sats, but shouldn't be shamed for not understanding it all on day 1.
FWIW: Apple and Google play stores are legacy systems and surveillance choke points, I would avoid those everywhere possible. To me, it's irresponsible to ever endorse someone use either of these, if you want to build a privacy centric future and care about the personal information of your users.
I speculate you've chosen this path of legacy system adoption for larger impact at scale than a PWA solution (which I've requested from day 1 as you know).
damus could have been way more successful if I capitulated with apple and integrated a kyc wallet, fuck that. We only exist for so long. Might as well build the future you want to see.
in process, dealing with friction points presently.

They're gonna block us anyway 🤷🏼♂️
don't rush me bro, sometimes it's Hard to pull out! get me?
shits dirty bro
Bruh I’ve been saying this for years!
Damus will succeed because of your conviction. And as bitcoiners well know, quality comes from having a low time preference.
Great advicd
As the saying goes: 'let the dead bury the dead'.
When it's time for something new don't let the old hold you back.

NO BRIDGES TO THE PAST
Integration is a must. A small amount of nerds in a corner doesn’t solely help provide wide scale solutions for massive problems.
Developers can and probably should focus on building, but many will task themselves with integrating. They should be embraced. It’s going to take a village.
Oh that's facts right there... 🧡
except stablecoins?

when & where this talk?
But how do you predict the future?
How can we build the future we want??
