      That’s going to rely on the US people. If they make a big enough fuss, Apple will have to bring it to NA. But in all likelihood it will be gated by your regional payment provider.

          My guess is Apple has already bought out most states if it gets to that. So you’ll get a few that will squabble and just get nothing done.

          Hope I’m wrong.

      If it’s not in the US, I fear developers won’t take it seriously and we probably won’t get many good sideloadable apps anyway

        I just want to sideload YouTube revanced and a couple of other apps. This is the only reason why I have an android.

          To be fair you can already do it for YouTube with uYou and AltStore, it won’t be as seamless as on Android but it’s possible :)

            I’ve heard about this Altsrote thing and I’ve been meaning to check it out. Does it allow apps to be installed permanent, or do I have to verify every week like the other ones?

              You need to verify every week, but it’s automatic as long as your computer is on during the verification
