Their reasons for not opening the App Store aren’t even good logical reasons like it would make the platform unsafe but then they claim the Mac is a safe platform. That’s what makes it so insulting.
I’d be less frustrated with them if they were just honest and said it’s about the money.
Mac is only a safe platform due to obscurity.
To be fair that’s not really true. Gatekeeper is deeply integrated into the OS and is extremely strict.
As opposed to windows, macOS will effectively refuse to run any software that is not signed and notarized by Apple themselves.
I’m not a fan of this behaviour but that’s the way it is.
You can put Windows in strict mode but it makes the computer virtually unusable. The other thing been is it there are techniques that attackers can use to bypass these checks thus making the signatures irrelevant anyway.
I’m pretty sure that can be turned off in security stings.
If not, you can hold down control or command when launching the so the first time to have the option to run the software anyway.
You can also use an immutable Linux distro (SteamOS being the most popular) and install software with flatpak, which is sandboxed using bubblewrap.
