@rileytestut wait so you are actually going to pay that 50 cents installation fee for the marketplace?

@khaost @rileytestut forget 50 cents, last time I heard, you have to show liquidity north of 1 million as well.

@Ciantic @khaost @rileytestut they removed this condition, you don't have to have 1 million now. And pretty sure if your app store only has free apps you can get the fee waived

@khaost I bet many would pay a few bucks to install the store because why not? 🤷‍♂️

IMO this is the only way for such stores.

@khaost @rileytestut I am curious where the line of credit came from as well

@rileytestut congratulations Riley! I wish there was a way us US folks would get a way to try out AltStore officially ☹️

@rileytestut, wait, Apple was saying they’d only allow alternative app stores on iOS. Are you able to distribute on all of those platforms listed?

I’m specifically really wanting my iPad to get access…

@rileytestut You can only actually roll it out to iOS though, despite the platform list in your screenshot, right?

@rileytestut you got that EUR 1M line of credit? And you can pay EUR 0.5 per download? Or did you form a non-profit?

@rileytestut hopefully this makes it’s way to the US in the future, congrats!

@rileytestut amazing! did you register as an organization, or what did you do to request the entitlement? I tried a couple things, but, no dice
