Wow it must be an extremely novel experience for an iOS programmer to have a company arbitrarily make decisions about what you can and cannot do on their platform

Why kick 'em when they're down already?
I wish I could say that Google is better at that. Itβs basically the same story but with even less humans to talk to when youβre flagged for doing something wrong or in the case of Google your former college roommate whom you havenβt seen in 10 years did something wrong. Itβs the price all mobile devs pay unless they only want to distribute to a small subset of users who have liberated their phones.
when I started with mobile apps google was easy and apple was a problem.
nowadays apple is very clear on what they allow and what they don't and it's possible to go back and forth with them to get something approved.
google is trying their hard to be as strict as apple while putting 0 of the effort in to correct problems. not to mention that android is a fucking piece of garbage to maintain. you have like 4 deadlines per year, you need to update this or that thing or your app won't work on this or that device, or the deprecation deadline for fucking safetynet arrives and they take two weeks to repair the google play integrity service.
tbh i think that safetynet and other attestation features are a waste of time and should die.
Doesn't having it private mean it wasn't a community of 150k? It was a community of 1.
I understood taking subs NSFW to keep advertising out, but taking them private was causing the community to die. Once that went beyond a few days it was time to shift platform.
What's reddit
Lemmy-like platform. But looks like they haven't implemented ActivityPub yet.
hola
They sound pretty shady. Think we should defederate?
