I will continue to support damus iOS for the forseeable future, but to do things such as zapraisers and zap-to-unlock, i will need a different platform to build on. This is why I started an alternative, cross-platform client back in december that works on linux+mac desktop, android and web. This should also be the fastest client, it uses rust and low level graphics apis.

Building a client like like this is much more difficult, but will be worth it in the long run. Damus iOS will continue to be where I spend most of my time, and we plan on making it the best iOS onboarding experience for nostr, but if we’re going to build a new circular economy for bitcoin in cyberspace, the apple appstore isn’t the place for this.
