  • Don‘t forget the Core Technology Fee they will raise if you do wish to offer your app outside of the app store and you weren‘t qualified for the Apple Developer Enterprise program.

    And don‘t forget that in order to be eligible for sideloading you have to have at least one million downloads on the App Store.

    And don‘t forget that your app still has to go through the App Review process so you have exactly no additional freedom if you live in the european economical area.

    I sure hope the EU keeps kicking Apples ass. I love iOS but i hate the lack of freedom.

    Btw, does anyone know whether visionOS even supports sideloading in the EEA.






  • There is a single aspect in which the Switch remains superior: Simplicity. Sure, you could take the time once to set up Yuzu and your Switch games and be rewarded with superior performance.

    But the technically less experienced user might be put off by the fact that you can‘t just plonk in the game and play it. That‘s however not exclusive to the Switch.

    I tried downloading Switch games from uuuuh… rather bespoke sites and they had a rather uuuuh… curious idea of what ads you could throw into the users face. Vivaldi‘s integrated adblocker simply couldn‘t handle those sites. That discouraged me from downloading games for now. Luckily MIG-Dumper is there to save the day and allow me to back up my games to later play them in Yuzu.



  • Apple cites security concerns for killing PWAs in europe. I mean they could‘ve made changes to the system to allow running PWAs in other browser engines by offering an API in which other applications could hook themselves into, akin to how Android did it with the web activity that is used by other apps.

    But then that would mean conceding to the EU and we can‘t have that, can we?
