Apple has introduced Catalyst in Xcode -- this translates iOS apps to macOS, compile once and run on two platforms.
Mac App store has been notirous for not getting as much love as the iOS one but this change might reverse the direction as there will be a lot more apps coming for the Mac App Store now that they can leverage their iOS dev ecosystem.
- w1nst0nsm1th 7y agoI don't know If the Mac App Store will bring better apps and grater for enthousiasm than it is now for Apple Store business model, but you can be sure of one thing : notarisation program will not last. The goal is to lock the platform like iOS and force force every user to get their apps through the App Store and nowhere else. I'm pretty sur once MacOS has switched to ARM, system partition will be in read only mode, you will not be able to install app outside of the AppStore except if you jailbreak thank to a "security flaw".
