Don't you also need to buy a Macbook? That is quite expensive. I guess in Apple's view also developping on a non-Apple device is a security risk.

I’ve never considered or tried anything other than using a Mac, so I don’t know. But I was responding to a comment about a different matter, the fees for a developer account.

The Mac requirement was a pain for game developers using Unity/UE primarily on Windows, and wanting to target iOS. (Back when mobile games seemed like they could be an exciting new thing, before predatory F2P enshittification killed that market...)
