A Pc that requires every dev register their blood type with Google? where do i sign up /s

edit: for all the iOS/MacOS whataboutists, i don't own any Apple devices for the same reasons, so not sure what point you are trying to make.



The last I heard, Windows for ARM also had enormous restrictions compared to x86.


Isnt that how it work on iOS as well?


But you don't run iOS on desktop computers. If MacOS went locked down like iOS people would throw fits.


Hasn't it been heading in that direction for a while?


Not really.


Actually, yes:

And this one got cancelled after a huge public outcry: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28309202. Also, Apple never said that it's fully cancelled.


That is what iPadOS Pro is for.

The sales prove there is enough happy people, even with the complaints regarding some of its limitations.


i don't know ,haven't seen an iOS pc and i don't own any of their other iOS devices or a MacOS device

edit: or an iPadOS Pro, for those who feel the need to highlight they spent the most.


It is called iPadOS Pro.


Are you referring to the iPad Pro or is there an actual iPadOS Pro I've never heard about?


Of course I am referring to what millions of people buy today, many of whom that is their only computing device.


Good for them, but what's the relevance, are you saying because people buy it's moral?


You get to see something that apparently you never saw.


So what? That's why we don't buy Apple products and never have.


Whataboutism?
