> Apple only cares about developers who are developing apps for their platforms IDK, it often feels like they don't care much about them either. I mean you know because of the users they are kinda forced to feed up with apple anyway even if they don't like it. I mean I work for a company developing a App (with web version) and if there is a target specific problem it's most times Apple: - The first version(s) of our web version won't support Safari as it's technically simple impossible. - We currently have to live with some dev annoyances for all targets due too apple taking to long to update their software stack (XCode/LLVM). - The fact that (in difference to android) you can't just simply emulate iOS or install Safari on Linux/Windows can make testing harder (on CI we have do have Mac/iOs tests, so it's only harder instead of impossible). - Even just some ad-hoc scripts around the dev workflow ran into problems because OS X lacking behind years (should we say over a decade by now?) when it comes to updating basic CLI/shell tools. - Compared to windows documentation of some (especially new) things can be quite crappy in my experience. - Long update cycles can mean you have to wait forever for bug fixes. - ... It often feels that when adding support for Windows/Linux/Android to a Linux/Windows/Android program written mostly with cross platform tooling would add 10% workload adding Apple support doubles the workload, or might not even be possible. Oh and non of the problems we ran into had anything to do with privacy...
