Apple Terminated Epic’s Developer Account
You mean when you want to make it available to download in the only way Apple makes possible? It’s not like you can just send the apk to someone to run on their iPhone, if you want to share the app with others on an iPhone, you have to use the Apple App Store, you have to pay them $100 + the cost of an Apple computer. Just to share your FOSS app with your friends.
on iOS its called ipa
If dev accounts are free your friends can get their own accounts and load the app.
It just works™️
Sideloading on android is also more complex than the play store
You’re not even good at whataboutism, lol. Changing one setting is not even comparable to Apple’s perfection. The message that you need to allow it first even takes you straight to the setting.
So… More complex than the play store?
Not really: You don’t need to log in. That is more effort than enabling sources ;)
Don’t forget that registration also requires an email account! And a phone number! All of that is not necessary for sideloading in Android.
You log in once when you buy the phone, for email, maps, calendar, play store, browser, messaging, drive, home automation, YouTube…
And before that you need to register and validate your contact data. Even the act of that one login is more work than changing one setting to allow sideloading. Your point is just completely wrong.
