There is not a single iOS full time dev, although iOS damus is fortunate to have a most time dev, and a couple intermittent part time devs. PT devs have serious full time jobs elsewhere.

One of the reasons nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s is tackling non-iOS is that apple throws cold water on any boundary pushing tech (e.g. zaps). There is a ton more to be done to bring freedom money to millions, and relying on how the appstore bureaucrats are feeling on the day of the damus review is foolish based on their 💩 treatment of damus devs (they cant even grant basic functionality outside zaps, and provide no explanation).

When team says we hear all the feedback - we do, and we know it painfully well. The reality of limited resources is that we must prioritize, as we dont have a VC funded full time team of half a dozen to a dozen devs. 

iOS will have to brace for the full nostrdb update as well. This means performance/under the hood upgrades at the cost of everything else to be worked on.
