That one is Maria Korolov's blog where she blogs more about facebook and oculus these days (with obvious paid guest posts that are ads). Her grid list s manually crafted and very outdated. Curious why you didn't know of opensimw

True but apple sells luxury , or premium products. They don’t seem to care for poorer countries

There is, of course. Government build ports, airports, customs etc. This is part of digital infrastructure (until the day comes that stores are no longer needed).

Vatc added at point of sale so in theory there is some benefit. Apple tax is aptly named because the analogy is good: it s mandatory (though not at gunpoint) , it s proportionate and arbitrary (might make sense if it was only on app sales,

Taxation is theft. That said, i dont see how paying the apple tax for the apps i buy is benefiting me at all, since i'm in Europe.

That s pure whataboutsm. Nothing stops apple from vetting apps without charging an extortionate 30% tax. They have plenty of money to do that. Or do you imply that apple’s tax deters scammers? Then , how are these companies accepted in the

That just means that 3 or more are already on the plan. With the UK gone it s not even an issue of rivalry anymore. The eu could promote this as a means to facilitate international trade, and frankly i dont see why members would disagree si

Apple seems to be on a PR offensive after a few weeks of bad press and it seems they are employing their usual bloggers to entertain the developer audience. I dunno why devs participate in this PR circus. And btw the author is wrong about c

Yeah but they have the best SEO

Yes because heavy pages clog their crawlers. Of course they are not following their advice (neither does FB)

That tells me their job is easier than we think, so they may face ‘disruption’ soon
