Was not trying to make fun of you. Your comment (and this one too) was speculative and made a lot of assumptions about motives you can't know.
- superkuh 6y agoKnowing the future is hard. Knowing how Apple has behaved in the past and how they are behaving currently and extrapolating is much easier. All indications are that apple is doing this to re-lockdown their market.
- ogre_codes 6y ago> All indications are that apple is doing this to re-lockdown their market. Apple releases are like a Rorschach check for developers. People see what they want to see in them. If you don't like/ don't trust Apple, every announcement is them creeping ever towards locking down everything. I've been hearing this for the past 6+ years. But here with the M1, they have the perfect opportunity to lock down the system. But they've left the opportunity for people to build and install whatever they want. They've even said explicitly that if Microsoft wanted to build Windows for the Mac they wanted to. We can still access a full shell, install home-brew and they've demoed Linux & Docker running on the M1. We can still install software from outside the App Store.
