“Between Two A-Chicks” is finally out! (Take notes TatumTurnUp (npub1hte…sw3d) ). Marce (npub1y67…q62h) kicks off our interview series from BTCPrague (npub167n…zu3r) with a banger on #Nostr and #Lightning 👇
Hey #nostriches 🤙 This #MarceFiles collaboration edition with MeA_BzZz (npub1h0f…kvcg) from Connect the World was one of my favorite interviews to record.
There’s never a dull moment with UNCLE ROCKSTAR (npub1j8y…vrvg) , and he is always willing to share his knowledge and make it fun!
I must say that Rockstar is a person I deeply admire, and I am beyond amazed by his support for everything I do. Thanks for living up to your name and making sure we all had a blast during #BTCPrague.
“As we get more people on #Nostr, I expect that promise of #Lightning will be delivered.” — Rockstar

jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s) shared additional details from his conversation with Apple yesterday. During the phone call he was told that selling physical things for #zaps is ok and Apple will not take a cut of those transactions. However, selling non-physical things like photos is not allowed unless it's through Apple’s system. He suggests a Damus PWA may become necessary.
Another thing the apple person said on the call: you can sell physical things with zaps and apple will not take a cut. So stores that sell physical things with zaps is still in play on Damus.
non-physical things like 🐈 photos unfortunately are not allowed unless it’s through apple pay.
Maybe a PWA will be needed in the end if we want to do stuff like that :/
ZEUS (npub1xnf…lpr5) announces that v0.7.6 of their app was submitted to the App Store, but rejected with Apple citing its policy on transmission of virtual currencies. Screenshot in linked note.
Derek Ross (npub18am…p424) shares zap stats and estimates #Nostr will surpass 1-million #zaps this week.
Keep Zapping, Nostriches! We're going to cross over the 1 Millionth Zap before the week's over. It could very well happen during tomorrow's #Zapathon if we zap hard enough.
NotBiebs and 69 others (npub1vp8…npsw) launches https://notazap.lol which allows you to #zap any note ID or npub from the web.
Updated notazap.lol to render a nostr.band (nprofile…zhsj) embed that's actually zappable. Now you only need the note ID in the URL to render a zappable note. If you want to render a zappable profile, use an npub instead of a note ID in the URL.

BTCapsule 🏴🧡 (npub1v6x…xk5t) 's website https://appothica.com, an app store for PWAs, is now open source with a MIT license. You can view the code on GitHub:
https://github.com/BTCapsule/appothica
A few years ago, I made a website called https://appothica.com
It is like an App Store for Progressive Web Apps
Today I added a few nostr clients and uploaded all the code to GitHub
The code is ugly and disorganized, and I was not the best programmer when I built this. So it is not very easy to add new PWAs, but it works.
Fork it, edit it, do whatever you want. I’m giving it to nostr 💜

Also, holy shit, given the number of complains of people missing translations, the feature is working really well and lots of people depend on it.
