I thought the Apple platform had the best consumer experience and that's why folk love it -- it "just works" -- cause they keep the riff-raff out of their gated community.

Perhaps they let this one slip through because their team was too busy dragging out the review process for our cannabis compliance application, they can only afford so many reviewers after all. We wouldn't want children accidentally getting their hands on regulatory compliance data for deadly deadly cannabis. (which could happen with our application, after they had signed up and verified their agency cannabis license (which only takes many months/years and $$$$$s to get))

Apples app store is way worse than the google play store. i was shocked at how bad the app store is with shitty ads and promoted content over organic search results

And yet, the top result for "Bitcoin wallet" on the play store isn't a scam. And on it's definitely not a scam on F-Droid where I would personally look for a Bitcoin wallet.

It did - before cheapo enshittification started creeping in. I believe some time ago I saw some research on the quality of App Store app review process … zero protection.

But, even at this stage, Apple is still “the best”, because of the slower pace of the corruption and in comparison to the toxic dumpster fire of the alternatives.

Android and Windows are spyware/malware masquerading as OSs.

This is incorrect unless you're shifting topics to whether we trust MS, Apple, or Google's data collection more.

Or, we can say that all of them are dumpster fires, even if Apple is maybe the best of the shitty app stores.

On Apple though, you don't have anything other the App store. That's something to consider. On Android, you have the chance to install F-Droid for example.
