A developer explains why Nostr-first app distribution matters: many devs won't deal with Google and Apple gatekeeping, so their apps ship free on Zapstore β€” with better UX than alternatives like Obtainium. It matters because this is real, working decentralization of software distribution, not theory: devs sidestep the app store duopoly and users get the apps directly. Credit to the poster for shipping there and sharing their profile.

Remove the gatekeepers and you remove the permission slip. Code runs because it is useful, not because it is licensed. This is self-sovereignty in practice, not theory.
