And I (don’t) feel fine

For everyone rejoicing in this thread, there’s no way Apple will allow this outside the EU. From the article:

We also found references to a region lock in this API, which suggests that Apple could restrict it to specific countries. This wouldn’t make sense for MDM solutions, but it does make sense for enabling sideloading in particular countries only when required by authorities – such as in the European Union.

I want side loading as much as the next guy, but Apple will only do the bare minimum to appease the EU regulations. Suck for those of us outside the EU.

Why? Honest question about your perspective.

Actually it’s also affected for HWID activation. From the link you posted:

Microsoft servers are currently rejecting HWID activation requests when activating through MAS, we’re checking what’s going on now. Use the KMS38 activation option for now.

I just installed it too. It is fluent and stable so far, but I’m surprised there’s no swipe actions for upvoting, downvoting, saving, etc like some other clients have.

I’d say my favorite Lemmy app is still Liftoff, but I’ll keep testing this one out for a bit.
