I don’t like lightning tbh. It’s too hard to figure out.
I felt the same way too. It IS complex. But it's getting better...

Yeah I’m playing with with Mutiny as a web app on my phone. Making me think REALLY hard about stopping all project and pivoting to PWAs. I’m not a fan of having very limited inbound liquidity that will require more fees, but it is getting better.
Mad respect for lightning ⚡️ engineers 👨‍💻

Totally. I think there's a lot of us wanting to move over to Bitcoin only jobs.
Why PWA? In a sentence or two? Why not just native apps like Phoenix?
reply
PWAs can appear to be a native app but are a saved website that is given OS access for things like local storage, push notifications and even allow for multiple copies of itself with different users. (Multiple mutiny wallets, for example) Also you get around centralized app stores. Damus had to recently remove the zap note feature because of a disagreement between @jb55 and Apple. If Damus was a PWA, then anyone could run it on nearly any platform and it could be updated without meeting any corporations rules for what your software is allowed to do.

Ohhhh interesting. Thanks for the info. Wild.
I'm curious to know more about this. Interesting stuff.

Wild stuff. I use stacker news as a PWA and just got this notification. It’s been blowing my mind lately. It’s so simple maybe I’m just catching up to it and it’s old news for everyone.
