Video app on Nostr? It should pull Youtube videos.

Git collaboration tools? It should show me repos on Github.

Social clients? It should give me the option to follow some Twitter accounts.

Zapstore would have been a smoother ride without bothering with external apps.

A permissionless app store alone, without indexing any external content, is a good enough pitch I think for getting grants and interest here in Nostr.

But without it Zapstore would be much less useful, and attracted less people from outside our bubble. We would be far from the daily usage numbers we are seeing right now. So I'm glad I invested in all that extra work (and frankly a lot of time in user support).

This is not a complaint. This is an invitation to everyone wanting to provide an alternative to centralized services to do the same.

This is also not about hosting petabytes of content, or even doing it for free, but to build bridges with the legacy world we are leaving behind.

It is how we attract users and connect and invite developers and creators elsewhere to get familiar with our tools and offer a smooth onramp to freedom tech.

So, who else is in?
