So that’s why there weren’t any open source apps on iOS. When I started my degoogling journey I got an iPhone to try out the grass on the other side. But i was sorely disappointed by both the low quality of the apps and the lack of open source alternatives.
Don’t forget about apple aggressively blocking any form of sideloading for a while
And this is why iOS gets progressive web apps from me. It isn’t that I can’t afford $100, it’s more fuck Apple for demanding tribute from my work.
If you make them with graceful degradation. Most toolkits/frameworks don’t. Else, simply make your webapp a webpage, please.
I instead label iOS as simply unsupported
Luckily google would never do the same to android /s
Its still cheaper to publish on the play store (one time fee of $25), and iirc apks would still be installable with adb anyway.
Still a shitty thing to do
One time fee sure, and then they close your account for not pushing updates frequently enough…
Give them a pseudo update
It’s just not worth the effort. You’ll find out they have change their policies on something, and you’ll have to fix your app to suit. It’s an endless churn of busywork
Honestly, that’s great, but you might as well cut to the chase and switch ROMs as well. Google isn’t going to budge.
To postmarketos preferably
more than that; you need to build on a ios machine, so every few years you have to buy a mac mini or some shit just to run xcode to compile the app. at least the last time I released an app across both stores that’s where we were (8 years ago).
Cloud bro
not really wild about it. but, fortunately has not been a problem since ignoring the iOS market lol.
If they are charging that much they clearly don’t want my app
If people want your app on ios then set up a donnorbox or something.
Will a döner box do?

How about a dick in a box?
That comes in the Donner Party box
