>PiS voters won't care as long as the state gives them money
TBH, I'm kinda tired of this "PiS voters are state dependants" notion. Sure, it's heavily popular in rural religious east but there's also a certain urban demographic that's being underrepresented by other parties. I'm in the 25-30 yo bracket, Warsaw, BSc summa cum laude, three foreign languages, top 1% earner (which is not that hard to achieve in Poland working in modern tech). If I were to vote today, I'd either skip the vote or vote for PiS. Also got some like-minded friends. Anecdotal evidence, sure. It's also a case of "but all of my polls showed Hillary and Remain over Trump and Brexit".
As a recent switcher to macOS I certainly have that leash-like feel.
First, app versions often differ between the Mac App Store and developer's own website. "Independent" versions tend to be a bit less restrictive, packing more functionality or features that Apple forbids for any reason. For instance, the App Store version of Elmedia player does not have a video/stream saving feature. Other apps like Telegram (specifically, the App Store versions) restrict the user from viewing the channels/communities which have been marked as spreading "pornographic"/"pirate" content. Needless to say, the app variants obtained from elsewhere pack all the features.
Second, I was surprised (well, not really) to learn about "notarization" in the latest versions of macOS, which essentially means signing the app by Apple. These days it's not just about scaring the user into thinking that unidentified apps are inherently evil (which the OS does a lot), it's also actively preventing the user from actually opening such apps. In Catalina the default dialog for opening an identified app features something like two buttons, offering to "Cancel" and "Move to Trash". So you have to either go to the Settings and override the security control or know that a control-click spawns the same window with an additional "Open" button being available.
At this point one starts thinking, how long will it take before those overrides and control-clicks get taken away for good.
