Comment on Distributing Mac apps outside the App Store, a quick start guide (2021)
Oh, this is not awkward at all - You are spending your time on this with me. So I appreciate your questions and input very much!
From 3.5.2 to 3.5.3 I did remove image assets from a view[^1], so the app contents are not the same.
I have an idea:
How about I bump the version to 3.5.4 without changing anything else, and create a release with both, .zip and .dmg to compare them.
Ideally, I'd use a completely new Mac (to avoid re-using an existing permission) to...
- first install and run the app from .zip, expecting the app to be shadow-banned
- secondly install and run the app from .dmg, expecting the app to work
What do you think?
