Why are there so few open source weather apps for iOS, compared to the very many that are on Android? (lemmy-u6723.vm.elestio.app)

Yeah, subscription cost has led to apps that would be free on Android being paid on Apple or opting out of being available all together. Not just on iOS but MacOS too, and opting for being available outside the Mac store.
