Not gonna lie this iOS PWA thing is pissing me right the hell off. So now I have to choose between not being able to use PWA's or not being able to type properly. This is what it's like as a disabled smartphone user in 2024. I hate it. So much. Burn it all down.

This shit is so disheartening. Come on EU please! So now we neither get third party app stores, nor get PWA's. This is literally just making all of our lives worse. How did they not see this coming?

Also if you're a blind android user and you're about to jump into my mentions saying something like oh it's not that bad, or just use BSI, or just use voice input, please just... don't. If there's something I'm missing then please by all means do tell me, but if it's just one of the above then trust me I've already considered it.

@talon The EU communicated their intent. Apple decided to comply maliciously with the letter. What matters now is what the EU does next. If it lets Apple get away with it, it’ll be stating that malicious compliance is welcome.

@aral It's all so disappointing and it's hard to really be excited about any of this stuff. There are so many random accessibility quirks and issues that for a lot of us, simply switching to something else isn't a great option, no matter how much I want to. It really, really sucks being caught in the middle of all this.
