Here’s my creative justification: there’s a policy that works for 99% of apps, and in this case requires Halide to fill two sentences of text in to comply with.

Here’s my creative justification: there’s a policy that works for 99% of apps, and in this case requires Halide to fill two sentences of text in to comply with. The alternative would be more mad.
- dghlsakjg 2y agoThe alternative is that Apple lets me run code an apps on my phone (hand computer) without gatekeeping it. My laptop computer has that ability built in, and it isn't really "mad"
- petesergeant 2y agoYou understand that this is an entirely separate argument about an entirely separate issue right? Even if Apple did do that, presumably it wouldn’t change their process for listing things on their curated App Store.
- dghlsakjg 2y agoThe fact that Apple's app store is the ONLY place for third party software means that the issue of app store listing policies and the inability to load unapproved software are deeply linked, and effectively the same issue. If Apple allowed me to load software from third parties directly, like I do on my computer, I wouldn't care what the App store policies were, much like I don't care what the MacOS app store policies are.
