All other countries without sideloading mandates
We're as shitty as we're legally allowed to be
- Apple
Technology isn't to enable users to do what they want, but to let corporations do what they can get away with.
Speak for yourself; I use Free Software.
I finally made the plunge to Linux desktop for all work in 2016 and have not looked back (and occasional windows VM, extremely rare now.) Even Arch is now perfectly fine as a workstation which surprised me. Recommend EndeavourOS to streamline the install process but it's Arch underneath.
To be fair that's not limited to Apple. Any company will follow the law to the letter, and lobby to change the law in their favour.
To be even fairer, corporations have no inherent "right" to exist, and in fact should not be allowed to exist unless they're acting ethically and serving society.
Ok, but Android wouldn't have to allow sideloading by that logic, yet...
Shouldnt have exited from the EU ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Wasn't my choice. I was 10.
One thing I've learned living in a conservative state in the US is that everything is my fault by proxy
I should just be rich enough to move, how hard can it be
I really wish this was a joke but it fucking isnt.
"We should just build a wall around your state and force it to secede. All the LGBT+ and POC should relocate immediately because it's not safe to live there."
"What about all the people who can't afford to move? What about all the people living on tribal land?"
"Oh, them? Hmmm. They should move, too. Again."
The fact is, right-wing extremism shouldn't be tolerated anywhere. Putting all the fascists "on an island" doesn't fix anything because there will always be children and other people who never asked to be there, yet have to suffer.
Have you just tried having more money?
Oh my God that was 8 years ago what the fuck
brexit went great huh?
It wasn't my dumb idea.
Thanks, brexit. yet another win 🙄
Imagine buying a piece of hardware and actually owning it.
“Minimizes diminished App Store revenue”
I am an Apple user and in the end I’m more comfortable with them having access to my data than google.. but man, they don’t even bother to pretend it’s a pro-consumer issue thing anymore.
Been noticing that a lot lately, corporate weasel language is dying as these companies grow more and more emboldened.
It's pretty funny considering their main arguments have never mentioned the financial impact and always leaned on SeCuRitY, or some dumb shit the fanboys will regurgitate.
Like, Apple you lying little slut — we know you cuck for coins in everything you do.
I'm getting real tired of corpo doublespeak. It's everywhere right now and I feel like people are finally getting wise to it. I don't want to hear whatever made up by committee garbage you came up with. Give us an answer.
another brexit benefit we stay winning /s
You should never sideload. Cranes are not designed to be loaded that way and the crane or the load could move unexpectedly.
Always lift vertically.
LoL wth? You're misunderstood the post.
When you reloading a gun, always turn the firearm sideways to have a better view of the chamber, and thus increase precision and reduce time.
Wtf are you talking about dude? I think you completely misread those.
If your PS5 is standing upright, you can't load the disc sideways like you normally would because the drive won't be oriented the same way. Duh.
Apple really fucking hates user freedom and choice.
Another Brexit Benefit
Fuck Nigel Frog face Farrage, The Haunted Victorian Pencil Jacob Rees-Mogg, Lord David Pig Fucker Cameron, Maybot, Boris I don't care where I stick my Johnson, and all the rest of the Tories who either actively supported this or were to self interested to not rebel as their leaders doubled down on their Brexit folly again and again.
Time to get an Android, I guess.
Always has been
Enjoy your walled garden, you paid for it.
I got it for free. It used to be my Gran's.
Brexit effect. Slowly but surely starts to show some results.

Imagine if steam only enabled refunds for australian customers and no one else, lmao.

Every 3rd world country that was already jail breaking and sideloading apps anyway:
Was Brexit really worth it?
Did somebody say "Brexit Dividend"?
So glad that Brexit brought the control back to our own hands!
Praise the EU
This year EU will get sudden spike in tourism and immigration
