It’s annoying that its the same app as apple streaming
and requires iTunes syncing, annoying, limited encoder support and not available on Linux unless you use a third party app, not that many open source or privacy-friendly ones
My GF has an iphone, and on KDE I can just connect it via USB and it's visible in the file manager.
There's also this.
Linux users simultaneously love to be anti establishment but also cry that there’s no support for Linux.
Your mistake is thinking there's some hive mind.
An absolutely tiny amount of people want fewer first party apps.
The vast majority would like all software to be available on all desktop OSes.
