Would love this for MacOS as well.

Fortunately, if you read the README (and decide to go past the “this was mostly built by AI” part,

> Loupe also builds for macOS. The Mac version is mostly complete, but a few things still need work before it's polished.

I got that feeling just seeing the title use "native" as a synonym of "not a website".

What “apps” do you use on a mac?

[VertanaNinjai]

Probably a ton since macOS apps are literally distributed as .app bundles.

Though there is a difference what store apps and non-store apps can do. I think is about store apps which are “sandboxed” and have to use public api to request then access information which non-store apps can access without.

Google Chrome, VS Code, among others

[bethekidyouwant]

Well “they” can technically “read” anything your user can.

Apps installed via the MAS have sandboxing applied to them, so this isn't really true.

[winstonwinston]

Yes but chrome is not from MAS. I have none MAS apps installed because they are simply not available via MAS.
