 Yes, this is why all the statements hardcore enthusiasts make about how much better this or that secure OS/device/app fall on deaf ears. Most people aren’t going to use it and relegating those users to the waste bin because you feel they should have done better simply isn’t good enough. That’s a lazy response. Build things that people can use and make it accessible to them as much as you can.

 That's not how Bitcoin was built and it's the only reason it won't be taken down.

Not saying we can't have nice experiences, but building for app store just means your users will get rugged

 Talking about apps and services that use the protocols, not the protocols themselves.

 same thing in my book when it comes to something that challenges the current dollar leadership

if it can be blocked I think it it will be... WoS and Wasabi as examples. My hope would be for great app/client experiences that are not dependent on app stores/OS. So that if you have to migrate, you can and you don't get rugged.

Don't get me wrong, I have an iPad... I think it's great, best tablet out there but if shit hits the fan, even if we have a covid 2.0 style global movement... I want to be on Graphene. It's also not as hard as people make it out to be.
