Getting some Qs about Delta availability, hope this clarifies things! • Delta is exclusive to AltStore in EU • Because of Apple’s new dev terms, all downloads in EU cost us €0.50/yr in AltStore PAL and App Store…so couldn’t offer Delta in EU App Stores without making it paid • App Store only supports one-time paid-upfront apps, so we’d have to pick a price that could support ~years of CTFs • PAL’s €1.50... - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago
Offtopic: a while ago the mastodon web interface changed so you had to enable javascript to see anything. I stopped reading mastodon links. I've just noticed that the server will cough up the post if you add "/embed" to the url.

Message from iGBA creator: https://mastodon.social/@rileytestut/112268412745806214 > So apparently Apple approved a knock-off of GBA4iOS — the predecessor to @delta I made in high school — in the App Store. I did not give anyone permission to do this, yet it’s now sitting at the top of the charts (despite being filled with ads + tracking) >I’ve bit my tongue a bunch in the past month…but this really frustrates me.... - Source: Hacker News / 15 days ago

There's obviously nothing stopping Parler from moving their application to another platform as they've clearly done so. In fact, in software development it's highly encouraged to not have "vendor lock-in". There's also nothing forcing Apple, Google, and Amazon to allow applications in their app store. In the case of Android, at least, the "main" app store isn't the only way to get an application on the platform. Source: over 1 year ago
