*Musk claims.

Not a reliable narrator, we'll have to see how this plays out.

If I had to wildly guess, Apple tends to be pretty strict about how an app moderates its content, and is not sure Twitter will adhere to its standards for what is allowed on their App Store.

I believe this is why Truth Social had a hard time getting on the App Store originally; they had to prove their intention to provide a baseline level of moderation before being allowed on (which they eventually did).

I wonder if Musk genuinely believes ranting about it on Twitter is gonna help.

As someone who never really used Twitter, and who absolutely loves seeing narcissists melt down in public, my popcorn consumption has gone through the roof of late. If Apple actually pull the app I might OD.

If Apple removes Twitter from iPhones for showing unmoderated content, they should have to remove Safari too.

Also Whatsapp and iMessages and Telegram too? /s

Now that we are there... Chrome, Firefox, Reddit, IRC clients and please please please tumblr... again /s

I think the original commenter was trying to draw attention the the fact that the rule seems somewhat pointless given how easy it is to go around it

Unsarcastically yes, though I'd prefer that they not ban Twitter rather than that they ban all of that. You've nicely illustrated my point for me of how absurd it is to ban things that let you access unmoderated content.
