      MacOS is an open platform, I am glad you have to jump through a few hoops to put yourself in danger unlike windows

        An “open” platform?

            Being able to run a program on an OS is the bare minimum. Anything not signed by Daddy Apple, you have to add an exception. The moment the exceptions are no longer enough to “protect the user against themselves,” you can’t do a thing. Why? Because it’s a fully closed, walled platform.

            It’s like being in prison and being told you’re free because you can walk in the yard.

              Downloaded apps that are unsigned just need to be approved in settings

              It is clear you don’t know what you are talking about

                You own the keys? It is actually extremely clear that you have no clue about what you are talking about. Re-read what I said.

                  I read it, none of makes sense to anyone that understands how computer work

                  You argued I couldn’t run anything I wanted, I proved you can

                  Go learn how an operating system works

                    No. I said the platform is closed. Not that you could not run anything. I argued that while you still CAN run whatever you want, that does not make it an open platform. Apple is one flag away from removing that right from you, and you won’t be able to do jack shit about it if (when) they do. And thank you, but I know very well how a computer works. I also happen to know macOS very well too, and you, you just don’t my friend. You understand marketing.

                    It’s ok. Not arguing more than that with a fanboy. I was one of you back in the days. You’ll eventually understand. In the meantime, good luck.
