The Fight for Android's Open Ecosystem (F-Droid Interview)
Introduction: Apple’s recent announcement regarding new rules for its App Store has raised concerns and garnered criticism from both users and regulators. The European Union (EU), in particular, has included substantial anti-circumvention provisions in the Digital Markets Act (DMA) that could potentially pave the way for legal action against Apple. These provisions aim to ensure effective compliance with the obligations outlined in the DMA. While Apple argues that the new rules are necessary for security purposes, critics accuse the tech giant of using security as an excuse to maintain its monopoly and restrict competition.
Without any of #Apple’s restrictions, what #app do you think you’d most want to build for the #iPad? Or what would you like to see running on it? I was thinking about how awesome #Blender and the sculpt tools would be with the #ApplePencil and want to see other people’s ideas! There’s tons the iPad hardware can do that hasn’t been done.
