The best thing announced today: I can finally use Grindr from my Mac!

Looking forward to the skit at the start of the keynote with all the third party developers in a hydraulic press.

Apple’s told us many times their goal is for Notarization to take “a few hours” max, but so far every AltStore app submission (from both us and 3rd party devs) has taken multiple weeks 🙃

Evri saying “We’ve got your parcel” feels more like a threat than anything else

(I like Gruber and I understand his sentiment but the way I cackled at that punchline 😂)

Gruber: A TASTE OF THINGS TO COME WITHOUT THE APP STORE

Man I would save so much time if I just did things right the first time.

And for the record, I think some devs SHOULD be treated differently.

It makes sense for Apple to help Spotify have the best app possible because guess what: IT HELPS TO SELL IPHONES.

No one is buying a phone they can’t run apps on. Apple’s position of “be grateful” is just detached from reality at this point. Totally bizarre.

Of course it’s kinda funny that even within a single press release they can’t make a coherent argument.

“Everyone is equal! Except for some select developers. And everyone loves the App Store! Except when we got so much ‘feedback’ we had to change it.”

Guys I can’t see the “FedEx me an Apple Engineer” option in App Store Connect??

Found this little baby in our garden. No microchip. No response to posters I put up. Shelter said they are full.

I guess I have a kitty now…?

Finally got around to watching The Curse finale…

🥇 NEW FEAR UNLOCKED
