the fact that zaps were blocked is…

Micro profile buttons on notes with zap buttons inside will probably be the future. Such a shame, note zapping is great.
It shows their stupidity and how little they understand what we are doing here. They don't even realize that Zaps are Bitcoin, you can't stop Bitcoin. 👏
I believe for alpha an email is required for invitationals. For beta there are some considerations that may require waiting for alpha approvals. Besides that, and not a gimmick, soon as.

Pathetic. Luckily you can still get zapped on your Plebstr Profile, or with the GetAlby Links
one of the last convulsions of a dying business model. A way of rentseeking that will be made obsolete. The flow of least resistance is already set in motion. Sats will flow, they’ve tried to block it before. The one that persists on throwing up barriers will lose the game eventually…
Another notch in centralizing powers' history where they brag & show off their domain over the masses with more pokes and no meaningful revolution in sight. Power structures locked down. From Central banks & economic control, to airport/travel restrictions, to globalizing surveillence systems, to coralling masses in every country to use centralized tech/web services to amass ungodly amounts of data, to perfecting science of tracking anyone from mere metadata, to modeling CCP-like ideals into many countries. (Unpopular opinion)
...informative. It highlights: 1. How Apple's outdated rails hurt developers; 2. How big of a chokepoint a centralized app store can be; 3. The lack of understanding of why internet needs its native currency; 4. The lack of understanding of what is Nostr; 5. If it wasnt a misunderstanding, it signals that Apple is still in denial phase.

shown the insecurities of Walled Garden executives.
I've never owned an iPhone in my life. But their ecosystem effects me everyday (iMessage frens wont take my texts or videos or pictures, and now zaps) it's nothing new, I'm used to them fucking my shit up even though I don't use em. Even their laptops are engineered to break if you try to run Linux. So yep! Big nope from me.

Silly. They either understand zaps are just bitcoin and know it can’t be stopped and are trying to buy time. Or they don’t understand any of this, and don’t see the wave of momentum growing.

Congratulations on block Jack.. always amazing
A sign we’re onto something big. I wish Steve Jobs was still with us — he would have loved bitcoin and everything it represents and unlocks.

I tend to disagree. Steve loved control, and he wouldn't be able to control #bitcoin .
