App Stores are such a bottleneck. Will progressive apps or web assembly fix? I think the future of mobile is up in the air. Not going away of course but too painful right now.

ok.. use a vm with osx + xcode + fastlane to compile/upload.
And app stores are not going anywhere anytime soon. They provide a way to control the eco system of apps, and increase quality, and security for the end user. -
Seethe4597y@magicMirror is there a VM for OSX that can run versions of OSX?? Also that wouldn’t solve my issue of needing to test using my phone but Apple not supporting the LAST version of Xcode. #sigh
So fucking pissed at Apple lately. -
I hope iOS development is possible without a mac someday.
Well am I dreaming too much? -
git-rekt287yI always wait at least a month after a macOS update has been out before updating, for this very reason. I told some colleagues this but they couldn’t understand why I did it. They ran their macOS update and spent the day fixing their dev environments. I love saying I told you so...😏
Apple flips the bird to devs again...
So I go to release a new version of my app (critical updates and bug fixes from mgmt) and I had just updated my phone. Yeah, that was a fucking mistake.
“This version of Xcode is not compatible with the new version of iOS.”
Ok... update Xcode...
“The new version of Xcode is not compatible with your version of OSX”
WTF?! This version isn’t that old? Fine... update OSX. 5 hours later...
“Hey, just wanted to let you know that we decided to break every one of your web development tool setting and basically nothing works on your computer now, oh yeah, and we’re Apple so FUCK YOU.”
