Yeah, the real lesson here is stop giving Apple et al control. You play on their ground, they own you. It's getting really hard to do these days, sadly.
Rename it to "AppToKeepMacAwake" heh
This app associates itself with the recreational use of amphetamines in much the same vein as candy cigarettes. Is the rule kinda stupid? Yep. Is it ultimately a cultural thing? Yep. But it’s Apple’s sandbox and you’re playing in it.
There’s always going to be issues of where to draw the line. “Columbine. A bulk process killer.” is obviously over it but amphetamines could go either way. Just rebrand to something else and get back to actually making useful stuff.
