@liaizon It feels pretty wrong that Apple sells ad space on a place like that at all. I mean, what else is that used for than tricking people into installing some other app than what they are looking for?

@forteller oh yeah I agree its totally completely fucked of Apple to do such a thing in the first place. but sadly this is now just an accepted norm for these types of things in contemporary tech world

@liaizon Apple wouldnt want fedi to succeed, because the ideology of fedi is going against apple ideology in terms of walled gardens.

@liaizon @forteller Still though, Apple have been better than others in some areas. Stuff like this (advertising, tracking, etc). So it’s extra sad.

This also reminds me pf how some gambling companies bought terms related to overcoming gaming addiction. 😬

Apple should just dump the entire ad system for apps and actually implement search that isn’t close to useless.
