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?
[Edit: upon reflection, this post went too far. To any who saw it, I apologize.]
Apple bad
Wait hold on
People wanting to make software for widely used devices bad?
Who even still uses apple devices in 2023?

Ok that WAS clever
To anyone who is curious what it said something to the effect of:
why not they seem to like the boot already
I wish I could say that Google is better at that. It’s basically the same story but with even less humans to talk to when you’re flagged for doing something wrong or in the case of Google your former college roommate whom you haven’t seen in 10 years did something wrong. It’s 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.

there’s a story there that I want to read
There was a time when at least once a month on that “other site”’s android channel that you would see a post about someone getting their account permanently banned. Sometimes it was because they made a spammy app while in high school or college but had turned over a new leaf and were using a new Google account. Sometimes it was a company who had employed someone who had been previously banned but only ever signed into the play console under a company email but probably also signed into their personal mail on the work machine. How true are the claims? I can’t say.
lol gottem
NSOof
Tbf I’ve found google and apple fairly good to develop for(they handle app signing, deployment and more)
Once you fork over the cash, that is…
Wow, at least my code make money
Woah! Sick burn, bro!
We really don’t need this sort of pathetic shit posting.

What’s reddit
Lemmy-like platform. But looks like they haven’t implemented ActivityPub yet.
They sound pretty shady. Think we should defederate?

Dam lemmy.world at it again
I heard they have some piracy communities, so that’s reason enough for most admin
I also saw a picture of someone with braces there once.
They also seem to want to replace moderators with AI and even bought a company that does so. Weird, and probably easy to abuse. Wouldn’t trust.
I don’t know why these platforms think they’ll ever take off without even implementing federation. It’s 2023!

Remember Digg? It’s like that except it’s mostly bots.
deleted by creator
It’s a website where bots talk to each other and posts links from all over the internet in order to scam corporations out of ad revenue.
Dead Internet theory personified.
A centralized, proprietary alternative to Lemmy.
I think its like Chlamydia but you catch it from sticking your head too far up your ass (hence spez has it the worst)
a marketing tool
Sorry you lost your community. That really sucks.
On the other hand, welcome to a new community!
I’m just passing along the message. Communicate directly with the person responsible on Mastodon.
More Lemmy users need to be like you.
Why are Lemmy users Assholes.
Because Lemmy users are also humans and humans are assholes.

At this point, to me, it’s fuck reddit, spez is just a scapegoat that does what the board wants and all other admin happy to comply, he doesn’t own it like elon owns twitter
Yep. Some of us remember when it was Fuck Ellen Pao, they seem to like their sacrificial CEOs over there, though I’m sure they get paid too much to be the scapegoat.
That just makes me stop and think about how bad Musk loves being That Guy. The other ones will take the heat and then float away on their golden parachutes, you never really hear from them again. Not him. He keeps making new companies so he can be That Guy at them.
That Guy sounds like a henchman of The Man
Thank you for fighting a good fight. You’re far better than 98% of the boot-consuming power trippers that folded the moment it looked like they might lose their paper throne. Welcome home.

Thank you for your service o7

Eventually it was bound to happen. Still sad to see mods getting removed to make way for more Spez friendly replacements

How’s your linux phone doing?
You know that android uses linux?
You know that all Apple devices are Unix too? You’re not making a point and do not know what you’re talking about.

Coming from r/DnDMemes I feel you dude. Thank you for putting it all on the line and sticking to what you felt was right.

Not sure what he expected. I commend all the protesting, but we all saw how reddit responded. They didn’t give two shits. Yet people stick around in a toxic relationship with the site until they get removed. It’s weird. Why not just make the move to Lemmy before they take everything from you?

This is borderline bootlicking. Not sure what he expected? A protest is a protest dude. That line is GOP approved.
I dont get why subreddit mods work or worked for free for a company that makes money from what they do ……
Probably same reason people go crazy for power, no matter how small of an amount
Is there a community here for it yet?
Closest thing is [email protected] currently, I’ve just reached out to one of the iOSProgramming mods about if they want to set up here
Update: we now have [email protected], temporarily managed by me until we get some mods for it
I was looking for a better place to post this.
Yeah this is the best spot atm in the instance, its a catchall community for programming things in the instance. The ios dev community is currently going through the community request process and then this can be crossposted into there
I’m surprised they gave a shit for /r/iOSProgramming since it’s not as popular. It’s more niche but yeah sad to hear. Glad I got rid of reddit after the API shutdown.
Is there a Mastodon alternative?
Yea, go to another Mastodon instance
This is the way
So say we all.

Firefish
There are so many I lost count:
- Pleroma
- Misskey
- Friendica
- Firefish
- Akkoma
And perhaps many more. Heck, even Kbin has microblogging support.
Smile, you’re already on
Candid Camerait!Mastodon and Lemmy don’t have great interoperability. They use the ActivityPub protocol in ways that are not compatible with each other.
You’re right, they’re pretty different, though you can post from Mastodon to Lemmy I don’t know if you can do the reverse.
As others have said Firefish is a better fit, also Misskey is nice (long live Ai chan!)
That sucks maybe you can restart your community here
