Francisco TolmaskyI really hate the term “side-loading.” We shouldn’t need a word for the normal way we’ve been installing apps for the past 40 years. If tomorrow Apple decided they were going to start only letting you visit web pages they approved of, we wouldn’t call some sort of alternating system that let you see *the rest of the fucking internet* “side-paging”. We’d instead call the whole thing bullshit.
John Allsopp@tolmasky in. A sense Apple has decided exactly that. A whole bunch of standardized APIs that web apps might rely on don’t work in Safari and therefore on iOS.
Essentially any aspect of the web Apple doesn’t want doesn’t happen on iOS and therefor effectively at all.
