I'm really enjoying Arc Browser lately. They thought of many small things that don't seem to be revolutionary on the surface but that make life easier, like their bookmarks/folders structure, spaces, Easels that I surprisingly use for visual bookmarking or drafting ideas or moodboards. Plus each interaction is well polished, you can see the team poured their hearts and souls into this project.
I'm curious if Apple banning competing apps is a real thing or just something media/haters created to create drama. I don't have an insider looks, so I honestly cannot know how those things go down. Do you happen to know any specific details? Genuinely curious :D
Why would an average customer want to download apps from who knows where instead of an App Store? Hey started this whole drama, they clearly did not even follow the guidelines. Why is it so hard to follow the guidelines to provide a better experience for the end user?
Through the App Store Apple make sure IOS apps are high quality, which won't be possible if developers start publishing apps all over the place. The fee is too high, that's a fact and that's the problem. The fact that you cannot download apps outside of the App Store is not the problem
