How does this make it more "fair" to Apple? You can find much worse using Safari very easily. Apple's behavior here is unforgivable.

- rolenthedeep 4y agoExpectations. People understand and expect that a browser will show you anything, and we've had parental controls for browsers for decades. When you look at YouTube, then look at lbry, the expectation is that lbry will show you similar things to YouTube. Yes, extreme content exists on YouTube, but there's two things that make it different. Such content is not allowed on YouTube and is usually removed quickly, and it generally doesn't pop up with the consistency and regularity that it does on lbry. I've used YouTube for years and I think I've seen something objectionable less than ten times. On lbry, I saw something every single time I searched for anything. The extreme content on lbry is an order of magnitude over what you might stumble into on YouTube. It's also much, much more common to accidentally find on lbry than on a browser. Apple doesn't want an app that willingly distributes such content with no intention of moderating it. Compare that concept to safari. Safari doesn't host and distribute content, and cannot conceivably moderate the entire internet. This is about one service not moderating extreme content.
