I'm a FOSS person. This is a massive step back in progress. I weep for everyone stuck in a single company's ecosystem. You will be abused before it's over.

- highlandinfo 7y agoYou have not read the guideline carefully or have misinterpreted it; nothing in it locks the end-user into Apple's ecosystem. The requirement is only that if the app uses a third-party authentication system (Facebook, Google, etc.), it must also offer Sign In with Apple alongside it. You're free to roll your own sign-in system, in which case you are not required to offer Sign In with Apple. Not seeing a problem here.
- buboard 7y agosign in with apple locks you into apple's caprices, there is no way around that. Apple will know where you 're signing in , and you will lose access to your account if apple decides they no longer like the app, or they no longer like you.
- onyva 7y agoFOSS person too. Don’t see the lock-in problem here other than indeed using Apple products. While you do, making sure you don't have to give identifying info or bother with generating disposable addresses yourself, is actually a good thing IMHO.
