Apple Threatens Decentralized Social Media App Damus With Removal, If It Doesn't Remove Tipping Feature

According to the Nostr protocol, on which Damus is based, zaps are simply tips.

Apple’s quibble with the feature is its non-adherence to guideline 3.1.1, which mandates the use of in-app purchases for transactions connected with digital content. Apple is unwavering on this: “We noticed that your app allows users to send ‘tips’ associated with receiving content from digital content creators with a mechanism other than in-app purchase,” the company pointed out.

Im always confused when people expect any different from apple. Fucking abandon them. They want their shitty walled garden let them have it. Those who care will move away and those who don't weren't your audience in the first place.

Ive never understood that argument. Androids are just as simple or complex as you make them

It's different from what they are used to and they refuse to learn.

Absolutely agreed - we need to actively be abandoning the platforms they hand to us.

Fuck apple. They make great hardware but fuck their policies. If they made it a bit more open it would be a great phone. Sadly people still buy them since it is expensive, classy and rich people use them.
