We hear “the app was removed by accident” far too often.

Agreed 100%! I’m a big fan of Apple, but these accidental removals and their seemingly arbitrary enforcement for some of their App Store policies are terrible for developers (and thus also for end-users in the long run).

Apple totally dropped the ball here IMO. It’s one thing to take an area where Apple dominates, such as the iPad, and only offer minor incremental updates. They can get away with taking their time. It’s another thing altogether when Apple is the minority player. They’re obviously not going to compete with the Rokus and the Amazon Fire sticks on price. So they need to compete with innovation and features. There is nothing obviously innovative about the newest iteration of the Apple TV. Very few people (outside of brand loyalists) are going to pay the premium price on the new Apple TV over the cheaper offerings from other companies.

As for me personally, the only feature I was hoping for, support for Spatial Audio, is not being offered on the new Apple TV. I thought this would’ve been a no-brainer.

First off, I love Apple as a company overall and am fully invested in their ecosystem. I really appreciate their dedication to privacy, the environment, and marginalized folx.

All that being said, their ridiculously outdated and puritanical views on human sexuality are terrible.

Can’t wait for Gatorguy to chime in and claim Google did nothing wrong here....

Wow, they’ve made it so hard to find this service. It’s almost like they don’t want people to know about it.
