Well the reason why you are having to use a web browser rather than sharing the app written using native APIs is because Apple forces you to use the App Store, so you yes did matter what Apple does. They prevent you from using the native to

Forget about all that. Start with no presuppositions: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_of_Logic Then you’ll find out the truth

We don’t need to understand how the mind works to derive the necessary metaphysical categories. That’s something Kant got wrong

Empirical truth is a lesser form of truth, look for necessary truth, purely rational

Well it isn’t a fallacy because if you reason without presuppositions you do uncover the absolute truth

Well the reasonable truth is not universal as in exhaustive but as in it always holds. I mean universal as in necessary, not contingent. Psychedelic and personal experience is merely contingent

Reason can know the entirety of all necessary truth. There are experiential contingent things such as what I ate for breakfast that it of course cannot know. But it can know all universal truth, such as all metaphysical and philosophical tr

It’s not overrated if you want to know the universal truths of reality, which is what the person I replied to spoke of. The truth is fully reasonable

Strange to make such a point based on what you expect to happen when clicking on the link would immediately show the opposite to be the case. But I guess you didn’t need to do that bc you already “knew” the swear words would fall?
