Comment on Homebrew, de facto standard package manager for macOS, now forces Apple's $99/yr notarization bullshit for all casks.
How will these other solutions bypass Apples quarantine?
By doing what homebrew currently does when you pass the --no-quarantine flag, which is call xattr.
--no-quarantine
xattr
Notarisation, free (as in beer) limits your ability to run your code that (Corporate) doesn’t like, making it inherently non free (as in freedom).
Yes, but you can still compile the code yourself. It’s only problematic for binary distribution.
Talking about balance when google is using the same tricks to crush f-droid is not reading the room.
