Spent this evening working on translate.damus.io, damus purple subscriptions will include deepL-quality translations. No messing with api keys. Will just work. I want to make this free for everyone eventually but for now I am focusing on breaking even.

Will double my efforts to look for ways for damus to be profitable. Grant funding is not sustainable or reliable. It is very likely that Damus will fail down this route, but I need to try. The only way for damus to be independent is to be powered by our users.

Spent this evening resizing a circle so it fits normally on iPhone SE, Pro Max’s, and iPads πŸ™ƒ
This is the way. No shame in charging for nice additional features on top of free basic features. People will find value in them and be willing to pay.
Is it possible to add a NIP that splits 5% of the underlying protocol directly to the developer of the client by default without going through the app configuration? When connecting an app through NIP-47NWC Alby wallet #[4] authorization, you can determine which app is connected and obtain the developer's Lightning address. It's automatically split to the developer. It works just like prism posts, but on the NIP. #[5]
iPhone translations are pretty bad and they aren’t automatic. Damus purple will have more features in the future as well.
Damus will not likely implement badges, but it would be cool to show account# and show custom graphics based on how early you were
