New Damus TestFlight build was released with tons of new features, including the long-awaited ability to Zap individual notes. Other features include a relay selector in global feed, nsec password manager support, DeepL translation support, and more. Check out Version 1.1.0's features here
Stu (npub1w4s…prhz) tells us why the adoption of Zaps by Nostr clients has the potential to change the world, promoting positive behavior, an engaging environment, and a value for value economy.
Karl (npub1cm8…8gft) provides perspective on what it means to ⚡️zap⚡️. Yes it’s fun, but it’s a whole new paradigm.

andquoting nevent1q…k5k2If you’re a Damus user, but not on TestFlight, here’s what you have to look forward to in the next update! ⚡️ ⚡️ ⚡️
quoting nevent1q…m7g8v1.0.0-15 changelog (William Casarin)
build 15 (William Casarin)
pushed to refs/heads/master
http://git.jb55.com/damus/commit/679c0ac424b9ea9498da06cb8ae5f669c69eede2.html
Stu (npub1w4s…prhz) tells us why the adoption of Zaps by Nostr clients has the potential to change the world, promoting positive behavior, an engaging environment, and a value for value economy.
quoting nevent1q…8gf0Why zaps will ⚡️ change the world. ⚡️
#1 zaps promote positive ⚡️ behaviour on ⚡️ social media. ⚡️ Nobody is likely ⚡️ going to receive zaps for shitposting, you likely get ⚡️ zaps for value added notes, ⚡️ the kind of ⚡️ notes that cause people ⚡️ to stop and pause ⚡️ and reflect. This ⚡️ is good. It promotes positive engagement ⚡️ and helpfulness.
#2 zaps are bitcoin! ⚡️ Just let that sink in ⚡️ for a moment. Zaps are ⚡️ bitcoin. Zaps take Bitcoin to new places, ⚡️ new people and ⚡️ completely new uses cases. It’s ⚡️ too hard to ignore zaps and ⚡️ everyone who ⚡️ sees it happening ⚡️ naturally wants to find ⚡️ out how to get ⚡️ involved. Zaps like ⚡️ have extremely high ⚡️ monetary velocity ⚡️ probably much higher than even dollar ⚡️ bills.
#3 zaps ⚡️ offer a clear and ⚡️ genuine path to ⚡️ ad free ⚡️ content monetisation. This is the only ⚡️ way to achieve free ⚡️ speech, ⚡️ free of commercial ⚡️ dependency, free of ⚡️ influence. People ⚡️ are not used ⚡️ to seeing this any more. ⚡️ We need it. We need ⚡️ objective news ⚡️ and now we can finance ⚡️ it directly.
I think this is so subtle and yet so fundamentally different in how zaps promotes positive behaviour and healthy engagement that when you aggregate this up to societal levels it will feel like a completely different society, once everyone has adopted this kind of online engagement.
The ⚡️ must flow.
Karl (npub1cm8…8gft) provides perspective on what it means to ⚡️zap⚡️. Yes it’s fun, but it’s a whole new paradigm.
quoting nevent1q…ne3tThe incentive structure on Nostr by adding the option to easily zap some Sats is mind blowing. Think about it. Everyone is incentivized to:
- Provide valuable content
- be kind(when appropriate)
- help other people
- not being a troll deamon
So many problems of social media solved by one simple feature made possible by #Bitcoin.
BTW those are the same problems others demanding KYC and clear names on social media for.
QW (npub1tvq…krq4) talks to Jack Mallers about Strike wallet upgrades. Is jack mallers (npub1cn4…3vle) dropping hints for a global kyc-free service?
quoting nevent1q…3gj0#[0] can you talk a little bit about Strike and Nostr?
I feel like it’s underrated in the capabilities as we all default to WoS.
Anything in the pipeline?
quoting nevent1q…jc9pglobal no kyc would be lit dontcha think

Most recent Damus (TestFlight) build has integrated DeepL translations. tyiu (npub1yau…vjmf) explains how to set up note translation
quoting nevent1q…6wh21. Go to Damus settings.
2. Under Translations, select DeepL and click Get API Key which opens their website.
3. Sign up for an account. It’ll ask for a credit card but it’s used to make sure you’re a unique customer and creating multiple accounts to get around their limits.
4. Once you’ve signed up, in the DeepL Account settings on their website, go to the Account tab.
5. Near the bottom of the page, you should see “Authentication Key for DeepL API”. Copy the key and paste it into the Damus DeepL settings.
6. Tap into a note that is in a different language than yours and it should show the Translate Note button.

quoting nevent1q…f5qhThe option to filter global by paid relays on Damus is a game changer. I’m finding lots of people who followed me that I had not followed back and posts from noobs needing help. Please take the time to help newcomers learn how everything works.
