So... just buy an Android? This is not an artificial limitation, it's an express preference that the vast majority of iOS users have voted for.
> The Mac as a product would not exist without third-party software distribution
The Mac is a completely different product servicing a completely different set of needs. Nobody is asking for the iPhone to be able to run Node or Vim so they can do their work, they want to scroll Instagram and reply to their iMessage
- arvinsim 2y agoBoth your statements are just arbitrary You are not representative of all iPhone users.
- saagarjha 2y agoPlenty of people are asking for that, actually. I suggest you look through the App Store for developer tools and report back what you find.
- riatin 2y agoI'm sure if it was really that much of an unmet need, Apple would be jumping out of their skin to go and build it and thus rake in the billions of unrealised revenue that must be out there But they're not, so I'm continue to assume they know what they're doing. Again, go buy an Android if that's what you want
