At some point in life, you realize that some discussions, some arguments, are entirely wastes of energy and entire premises can be thrown away with simpler discussions and arguments. To this one, I say, who cares? Don’t publish on platforms where you can’t control your own intellectual property. Why use the App Store at all? It only serves to benefit Apple, and the vast majority of developers are simply making $100/yr payments to use their own custom software. For the largest companies who ship apps on iOS and Android because they have more money than sense and can afford to waste countless engineering hours letting barely qualified, fractionally compensated people say yes or no, I say let them. For the rest of us who are better managers, let’s own our own release process, and if that means building a website or a web app instead, go do it. Whatever you’re shipping to a phone isn’t for professionals anyway. |
That's a bold statement.
I hate developing for iPhone, but I don't have a choice because 85% of the users of our B2B app are on iOS.
