Great take from @drbarnard on Apple’s App Store issues
Here is a great take on Apple’s App Store issues by @drbarnard. To me, the key is for Apple to change its mindset from working too hard on the lock-in to working on the experience quality (tweet #10 in the thread) and let the users decide.

If you are not on iOS 14 beta 4, hold off and wait for Beta 5. I do experience the same issues exposed in this Twitter thread. Very buggy release. It reminds me of iOS 13 betas. #ios14beta4 #apple

On Apple's latest iMac update
Great reviews on the latest iMac update. As a serious amateur photographer, the thing that stands out to me is the new nano glass option. At 500$ it is not cheap but reviewers are liking it a lot. Could this option eventually come to the iPad Pro? Or the iPhone? I would pay a premium for this on the iPad Pro.
Now, why the 21.5” iMac has not been updated is a mystery to me. I currently own a max-out 2017 21.5” iMac. The size of this machine is better for me, but I would prefer a 24”. Could this mean the lower size iMac will be the first desktop to receive the Apple Silicon treatment as well a the long overdue redesign? I think so.

How Long Apple can stand like this?
On Apple’s stance on its App Store policies.
Developers are complaining. The tech press is complaining. Governments are complaining. Now Microsoft is complaining. And Facebook too.
Google? Are users complaining? I don’t see that. Does it make a big difference for Apple?
How long Apple can stand like this?

Am I surprised? Nope. Actually, yes, I thought meeting time would have increased much more.

Dear Apple, you are (again) painting yourself in another form of thermal cornor. Back off while you can. I know, saving your face ain’t easy. #apple #appstore

iOS 14 Beta 4 is crap. There I said it.

Was he too dogmatic? Stubborn? 🤔 twitter.com/stroughto…

Apple is really not done with Intel in the Mac. It is clear to me that Apple Silicon will find its way in lower end machines first, certainly portable ones with today’s announcements.

On Phil Schiller (departure) of Apple
Aside from the iMac updates coming out of Apple today, here is another (more important) news: Phil Schiller is now an Apple Fellow. That was not expected. People come and go. Mr. Schiller as done a lot for Apple. Time to (slowly) move on.
I don’t like Greg “Joz” Jozwiak.

Apple certainly gained a lot of ground in the tablet market during the pandemic. But according to these numbers, the increase was even better for other players in the field.

If Apple allowed side-loading of apps on iOS:
- would they still require the ability to use a kill switch?
- how would this affect their ability to build the right binary for the right platform architecture at installation time?
- what else would Apple would have to give up?

When I wanted to work for Apple...
Here is a short story. In 1985, I was working for an authorized Apple dealer in my home town. I was an Apple zealot (surprise?) and I wanted to work for them. So, I created my (short) resume and sent it (by mail) to Apple’s headquarters. A few months later, I got a polite response: Thanks, but no thanks. I was eighteen.

+1. Very sad seeing Apple acting like this. Maybe Apple seeling great products, they are telling lies too. Can we have it both ways? #apple twitter.com/timsweene…

Apple is doomed. I mean, really doomed this time. Or not. Q3FY20

After 10 seconds of watching this iPhone 12 concept video I had enough. 🤦🏻♂️ youtu.be

Woah, that is a prime example of impressive architecture for a store. One question: where a the customers? #coronaviruseffect Apple Central World opens Friday in Thailand - Apple

What Steve Jobs would have said… ?

Do you think Apple has plans already in place to allow for third-party payment systems on the App Store, just in case they are being forced to add these?
