The following suggests a technical solution and expresses no opinion on the policy issues of supporting the Mac App Store:
Jason implies that Mac apps that use the Network Extension can only be distributed through the App Store, but this appears to be a misunderstanding. This page at Apple purports to document a way to build an app for distribution outside the App Store:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/entitlements/com_apple_developer_networking_networkextension https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/en...
Perhaps this would allow WireGuard to support the Mac more easily without having to rely on the App Store. (It still requires an Apple Developer account, but that's already a requirement for the App Store.)
- sneak 6y agoThere has previously been inconsistency between the documentation and practice, with Apple staff clarifying things contrary to the documentation. If this has changed for the better, it has changed very recently.
