Also there's a ton of real products that aren't in the app store for whatever reasons. Eg setting up a new developer machine, the whole homebrew scene is an absolute must. Then you get IntelliJ, Docker, Rustup, Go, etc etc.

Code signing is obviously going to be necessary at all steps, just not via Apple.

I learned today that not all Microsoft programs for the Macintosh are in the App Store. Outlook? Yep. Teams? Nope. I wonder why.

(I also note that Teams would only install for all users of the computer, not for the person currently logged in, which I thought was strange, but it's my company's computer, so I don't care that much.)
