...but Windows support is still available? It's hard to take that seriously...
Microsoft have never pretended to be Good, or to take me seriously. They always treated their users like shit, and counted on the Stockholm Syndrome for future sales.
So... Microsoft doesn't also scan your OneDrive system for content that shouldn't be on your system?
Would have made sense if the reason was due to supporting closed-source operating systems.

I never used One Drive. And I don't use Windows outside VM's that I only use for software development (with local user accounts).
Apple don't allow me to test my software for MacOS in a VM hosted by Linux. So when I switch off my Mac Pro for good, later today, I can no longer test my code for Mac.
But my motivation is to 'Just Say No!'. It's enough now.

And the reason to say “no”? Baseless and purely ideological, or there’s something better not found?
I guess statements like this are basically all you have.
How else can you show direct disapproval? _not_ buying a device in 2 years?

The title would be better if it included the project name, such as
"macOS support removed from restc-cpp after Apple privacy announcement"
Yes, it would. Unfortunately I'm a software developer, not a marking guy. This was not a well planned and executed move. It was just what felt I had to do.
LOL. What I hear: “Apple is going to stop me from having a stash of kiddy porn on the cloud, just like every other provider so i’ma take my ball home.”
Mind, they’re doing it in a way that is better at privacy protection than others, making your little temper tantrum even more ridiculous.

Discouraging activism in the open-source realm by branding it as a "temper tantrum" seems counterproductive at best, and quite reductionist at worst.

I don't think it matters if the method used is better than the competition. The main point of contention is: people shouldn't be having their images scanned anyway, especially on their own device.
