> do they strike news channels when copyrighted music plays in the background without their control too?
Yes, they do. In Brazil, to avoid some news reports about stores selling contraband items, the store owners started playing Disney songs in the background, meaning they weren't able to publish the videos or broadcast them.
… or you can just close your eyes, and move your face around. The device will not unlock if you're not looking at it and after 3 or 4 tries will ask for the password.
I remember writing apps for PalmOS (long time ago) distributors like PalmGear took over 60% from international developers like me, plus they held your earnings until you hit a minimum payout threshold. Add bank fees on top of that, and it was basically not worth developing for the platform. 30% felt like a godsend in comparison. (I'm not defending the Apple / Google tax)
It happens to me a lot, I just created a small automation to use

This kind of thinking is exactly why Electron-based apps end up consuming 4% CPU while doing nothing, and why some games use 100% CPU just sitting in their menus.
Why would you expect users to manage threads, processors, and system resources themselves?

Swift.
I hope this helps people to consider Swift 6 as a viable option for server-side development, since it offers many of the modern safety features of Rust, including simpler memory management through ARC, compared to Rust’s more complex ownership system and more predictable than Go's garbage collector.
re: controls
Custom controls are the enshittification of the <video> tag. IMHO there's no custom video component that allows the user to control volume, picture-in-picture, AirPlay, control speed and scrubbing better than the standard controls, especially on mobile.

I would like to see examples of integrating refine in a existing app.
Yes, you can, if the device's owner is wearing glasses.

Extra tip for iOS/macOS/iPadOS users: go to Settings / Accessibility / Display & Text Size / Color Filters and enable the Grayscale filter.

https://developer.apple.com/support/enrollment/Do I need to enroll to install apps on a device?
No. You can install apps on a device for free with Xcode. You’ll only need to enroll if you’d like to distribute apps, access beta software, and integrate with capabilities such as Siri, Apple Pay, and iCloud.
So, Epic, Spotify and Tinder can make their stores, they just need to automate the process.
The timeline looks nice, I wonder if it is opensource.

I find really amusing the author does want to hide the installation from Apple, but recommends using Google DNS and Chrome for everything else.
System Integrity Protection, basically not even root can change files protected by SIP.
except for the PATENTS file =/
