Nobody here complains about Apple's OSX vs iOS, where iOS has no shell

Do you want me to? :)

Every single time I fire up Pythonista on an iOS device I soon realise that any meaningful coding I do requires access to external data. And then I give up, until next time some years down the line.

There is StaSh — a Bash-like shell for Pythonista (scp, git, ptinstaller, mail, pip, etc) e.g., you can run: `pip install youtube-dl`.

Pythonista for iOS can be used for automation (Workflow for programmers).

iOS is a companion device. Except for Federico Viticci, anybody technical has a Linux/Windows/MacOS system to go along with their tablet.

For a good reason. iOS is not marketed as "macOS for beginners" and doesn't run Mac App Store software.

It isn't? I'm pretty sure that's exactly how the new iPad Pro with keyboard is marketed.

No because this is HN, and Apple reigns on SV.

We've all heard it, these comments are boring.

People using Apple have the mentality of slaves. Of course no one complains.

Is this reddit?
