Darrell Etherington / TechCrunch : Mastodon: @lapcatsoftware@mastodon … . X: @patrickmoorhead . Forums: r/apple Mastodon: Jeff Johnson / @lapcatsoftware@mastodon.social : The irony of Apple's “five app stores” approach is that it may cause even *fewer* developers to support iPad, and consequently, macOS and visionOS. X: Patrick Moorhead / @patrickmoorhead : Apple's BoD hopefully can provide adult supervision on this topic. While I don't think this will unravel Apple as its power lies mostly users and developers *have* to create for iOS, this HAS to have developers rethinking their strategies for platforms and promotion.
