@ianbetteridge Dead right. Apple’s unconvincing arguments would be more convincing if their App Store weren’t full of obvious scams, fakes and casino games.

Ignorance is easily curable, especially in this instance. Laziness is perhaps incurable. Anyone using LastPass is an incurable idiot.

@ianbetteridge on the Anki subreddit there was a near constant stream of posts by people complaining about an iOS app called AnkiApp which did a pretty similar thing to the actual Anki app but in an enshittified way.
Apple had specifically decided that this didn't violate any App Store terms or conditions.
