Still no Mac App Store version? Sigh...

• welder 7y ago
  Probably due to the Apple tax.

    Their macOS app is already notarized by Apple, there is no additional "Apple tax" for them to make a Mac App Store version.

    No, it's probably because then the app would need to be sandboxed and they wouldn't be able to justify their insane Hardened Runtime exemptions.

    Since they are already on iOS, this is not an excuse. I would only trust a sandboxed version from them.

    Apple tax on free?

  There is a mac version, why do you require it from the mac app store instead of the developer's site?
  • glogla 7y ago
    Because the non-app store version does weird stuff - faking installation, background services, etc. Sandboxed version would hopefully be less malware-like.

    Security. App store has much tighter rules on what a developer can do whereas downloading a dmg from somewhere pretty much leaves you to fend for yourself (and Zoom already has proven itself here). Edit: clarifications
  • diebeforei485 7y ago
    Because at this point, every single version of the app from their site has had some issue that wouldn't have happened in a sandboxed Mac App Store version.
