  • yattee

  • And there won't be since Google just got caught giving Spotify a lower rate and now face anti-trust issues. That doesn't mean they don't give certain apps certain permissions. AFAIK, Apple gives Google special permission to enable VP9/AV1 formats decoding [0].

    Whether you like it or not, we're heading towards a future where Apple and Google choose who wins and who loses. A good app built on merit will never be able to compete.

  • > A new version of Safari shipped 17 times in the last 28 month

    > Yes, not as frequent as monthly releases, but Apple shipped 7 Safari updates on iOS in 2023.

    That's a very recent change: prior to 2022 Apple had far fewer updates to Safari on both macOS and iOS - and still witholds Safari updates from older iOS versions - for example, there was only 1 macOS Safari update per year between 2008 and 2015, and only 2 updates per year from 2015 to 2022; while things were just as sparse on iOS.

  • Chromium targets iOS already: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/i...

  • tailscale

    The easiest, most secure way to use WireGuard and 2FA.

  • Might be possible to do using a VPN as long as you can get broadcast/multicast packets forwarded.

    Tailscale unfortunately doesn't support it...yet?

  • hardened_malloc

    Hardened allocator designed for modern systems. It has integration into Android's Bionic libc and can be used externally with musl and glibc as a dynamic library for use on other Linux-based platforms. It will gain more portability / integration over time.
