Which personal attack? You mean calling out americans? How is that personal? You also going to ban everyone here who posts disparaging generalizations about europeans? Because so far you haven't been.

As for

> Are you a shill, a troll or just an upset fanboy?

This is a genuine question, not an attack.

Have you never been on a 3 week vacation? Or even just a 2 week one with a day before/after where you didn't sit down to read your email? Apple apparently started their freakout after 15 days

where do you think their billions come from?

I'm running NodeRED and ESPHome in their own docker containers, integrated with home assistant, just fine. Never used supervisor. It's been a few years since I set them up so I don't remember the details but that also means it wasn't anything notable. They've been stable since.

not paying for a new phone in full does NOT warrant retaliatory action against all of the author's accounts.

block the device, sure. send collections after him for the unpaid amount, sure.

retaliating by blocking all his unrelated, paid for, accounts is yet another reason apple should be broken up. it also doesn't sound like they refunded him for the days of usage that were lost that surely still had to be paid for.

> Home Assistant has support for that remote option, and no others.

It's literally just a reverse proxy. Set up any you like. Wireguard, cloudflare tunnel, caddy with a security plugin, the options are limitless.

I've been running home assistant in docker for years. Just the `homeassistant/home-assistant` image. Don't need anything more. Best I can tell is that the supervisor is for people who just wanted a managed home assistant in a box setup at which point it's fair for the software to take over the system.

if 3 posts every hour before getting rate limited is spamming sure

Re-read the post we're commenting on please.

Terms that were illegal and thus not binding in many jurisdictions. If I were to write: "By replying to this comment you agree to my Terms of Service which require you to paypal me 10k", you would laugh and disregard it. Same thing.

Anyway, just look at how apple forced their payment service so they can take a 30% cut of every transaction made by any iPhone user. Then they banned price differences between Apple's own payment service and external, cheaper, ones. This forces companies to raise their prices by 30% everywhere. So we're all paying more to fund apple's greed. This is just one example of many, and you have to look beyond the apple vs epic fight since that is just the most public instance. Apple are the bullies.

Apple are involving themselves in business between their customers and companies those users have chosen to use. Apple are the bullies.

Of course not, but resulting changes to Apple's policy are still a good thing for everyone else. Anything that forces apple to bully other organizations and people less is a good thing.

> Why people try to defend Apple I'll never understand, my guess is some people who own an iPhone have decided that's 'their team' and who wants to see their team lose

It's this. Apple somehow managed to cultivate cult-like behavior in their users, which I've also never understood.

> I would also not want to do business with Epic

So don't put yourself in the position where you have to do business with Epic, like forcing them to use your store to get software on the platform over a billion users use.

Apple could easily just do what various courts have ordered them to do: Open up the ecosystem and allow anyone to distribute apps. This has the added benefit of allowing apple to stop doing business with the entities they don't like, because they are no longer involving themselves in a transaction between the user and the business the user has chosen.

It will also save their executives from a prison sentence if they keep this up.

No, apple is clearly the evil one. They are bullying many, many, many other companies and individiuals in a similar, and often even worse, fashion. Those don't speak up because they're afraid of Apple's wrath. Thankfully Epic did have the balls to stand up, and now various various legal entities are forcing apple to make changes that benefit everyone (except apple).
