I’m living in one of those irrelevant EU countries and am considering getting one from Germany. Do you know if this is going to cause issues when downloading apps from a non-German Apple account, etc.?

I think the idea is that instead of spending an additional $4000 on external hardware, you can just buy one thing (your main work machine) and call it a day. Also, the Mac Studio isn’t that much cheaper at that price point.

I don’t understand why apps need access to my photos at all. (with some very specific exceptions,) apps should only access a photo, which I first select using the system photo picker. There’s no need for apps to access the entire camera r

You should never store passwords anyways. You store hashes. I don’t see the issue. If you don’t trust yourself to keep a hash, maybe don’t store user information at all.

Sure, it's possible that they were just unlucky or not quite honest, but often they backed it up with links to the OVH status page. Regardless, that's why I prefaced it with personal experience. I'm curious, though: Do you ha
