A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm still kind of sceptical about this. You could always install custom apps onto your iPhone as long as you had a Mac and you had the source. I'm imagining that you now still need everything, except that you can install packaged apps. I'd love if it was different/like on android, but the past has shown us that big companies often know their ways around.

You could but you also had to reload them every 2 weeks which is a real PITA, or pony up the $100. And keep Xcode up to date which uses a ton of space.

Hmm, that's true. The two weeks probably also wouldn't be okay.
