    Depending on how strict apple makes it:

    You can sideload an app, that would normally be rejected by the App Store review process, that tries to harm the user by exploiting certain native APIs/capabilities.

    I’d never ever ever sideload an app that is not open source and that is not built by me or by a reputable source. That, I only suggest to power users.

    I’m guessing eventually, some users will regret ever sideloading.

    I bet some companies will eventually make non-App Store versions of their apps, companies that want to increase their profits by not paying the App Store commission (such as Spotify, Hey) and companies that want to track the color of your panties (such as Meta).

    I don’t give a shit about how much profit Spotify makes and I want somebody to police social media apps as much as possible so I’ll keep using the App Store for those cases.
