While I think I've come around to this position, the big question here that comes to mind is: does this even work for iOS apps, given Twitter could just go to Apple (the App Store team, I guess) over it?
- saurik 4y agoThis is the rub, and I do believe the answer is "no" :/. But, "Apple having central control over software development and distribution is, at its best, an extra-judicial defense of surveillance capitalism (...and, at its worst, an extra-judicial defense of totalitarian regimes)" is at least nothing new :(. I really miss the iOS jailbreak ecosystem--back before Apple really started to win--as I felt like I could just build whatever I wanted (as long as it was legal and I definitely had lots of lawyers to check some of the stuff I had wanted to release ;P) and push it without asking for permission from Big Tech :(.
