Aw man, now I’m sad because that means that’s the next thing Apple will nerf out of existence. I like my clipboard manager and I haven’t ever downloaded malware onto my Mac despite rarely using their crappy App Store. :(
Stage 1: Everything is totally trusting.
Viruses exist, and scanners exist to help you not download anything stupid.
Stage 2: Locked ecosystems like iOS App Store, Platform Vendor claims their 100% diligence will protect you (and them) from all possible bad (or insufficiently-profitable) software.
Apparently they weren’t satisfied
Stage 3: Full Sandboxing and full enforcement of Platform Vendor’s blessed software source only.
Now my computer, like my phone, will only ever have the exact, enumerated features the Platform Vendor blesses me with and I will like it or else. I am free to file a feedback on their website if I’d like a clipboard manager, and they may one day look at that feedback.
