I didn't mind their conservative approach toward developers . it was good more private and secure . this means nothing as they'll still take same amount of money from devs . but iphones will be less secured. I don't get people celebrating this.
true , apple too, like Google has let organizations use consumer's private data . but those were only limited to politician, spy , businessmen kind of people. but now everyone is exposed

Vonikhsat S Metra, 14 Dec 2022Finally iPhones could become useful.Actually this could mean an increase in their device sales, as some of us opposed to the closed religious sect might consider giving them a second chance.

Does that mean I can download emulators for consoles like PS2 and GameCube without a need to jailbreak? How about torrent apps when I want to download House of the Dragon episodes since I don't have HBO Max?? With the Files app, iPhones are starting to get closer to how Android operates. I keep buying iPhones but old ones with a home button because they're easier to repair.
On the flip side, Apple is the most evil company out there. Apple talks about helping the environment when they're the ones who are anti-consumer and pushes for planned obsolescence. Old iPhones keep filling up landfills by making them break easier and harder to repair. They're against Elon Musk because they don't want Americans to have freedom of speech. Apple wants censorship like the commies they are.

Finally at last. The fortnight will be back. But are apple prepared for the massive loss of income due to the exodus of app creators due to them overpricing their 30% revenue from all apps in their store?

Let me guess: Sideloading is allowed but the developer still has to pay $99 a year to notarize their app so that iOS won't complain.

Or might as well buy an android and install whatever you want.
