    Not only do they force you to use the App Store, developing an app for iOS is a nightmare. Without special tools you must have a mac and a $100/yr apple developer license.

    After having to deal with that shit at my old place of work I’ve moved to never touch app development again.

      Yep. Totally agree.

      I only ended up with a Mac because edge kept hijacking my chrome tabs every reboot

      But, it costs far more than a PC, and honestly, the hardware capabilities are worse

      At least the M3 chips I think now have ray tracing. But still no nested VT so I can’t even run the windows android emulator in parallels

      Also, I keep coming across weird Mac os bugs with windows handling and device handling

      I actually used to sell them. And got in an argument with a national sales manager over running windows on them. Apple released boot camp a week later and suddenly he returned to repeat the same arguments I used against him. Never got an apology
