Makes it worse than what we have now. No real sideloading of .ipa. (Never get anything from a Meta/Facebook store, make'em keep using App Store to at least comply with your tracking choices) Hopefully we’ll see an open source fdroid-like app store tho</p><p>I say they’re intentionally doing it the bad way so people become against sideloading.
