@drbarnard It would only be hypocritical if they ever purported to believe that 3rd party developers are on an equal footing.
Apple emailing people who bought Aperture from the Mac App Store is a bit hypocritical. No other developers can.http://www.macrumors.com/2015/03/05/aperture-removal-email-apple/ …

@danielpunkass True, but do you think App Store shoppers gets that? Apple’s apps break rules and set expectations we can’t deliver. - View other replies

@drbarnard Not to mention the previous treatment of Aperture, they granted free licenses in the App Store to anybody who owned a prior copy. -
@danielpunkass Oh yeah, I forgot about that one.

I think it’s a good thing Apple doesn’t give the email address of every customer to developers, but Apple should play by their own rules.

If teams inside Apple had to navigate iOS/OS X development the way 3rd parties do, things would likely be very different.

@drbarnard indeed. They would feel how crippling certain aspects are.

@drbarnard App developers know exactly what they're getting into on the iOS platform, so how is that hypocritical? - View other replies

@thomasfuchs By emailing Mac App Store customers directly, they acknowledge that having direct contact with customers is needed at times.

@drbarnard “We’re, uh, …testing a new feature! You’ll have access to it ‘soon’. We promise.” (*Apple giggles behind your back*) -
@drbarnard@daveverwer that’s putting it nicely -
@drbarnard not integrate with the Photo picker, or be some sort of installer instead of a sandboxed app. -
@drbarnard Could you submit a build with description reminding app will be removed. Or would Apple metadata reject it? -
@drbarnard it's anyone that bought Aperture, not just MAS purchases.... Do agree, though, there should be a mechanism to reach customers....
