I switched from macos to Linux because it can't stop babying users and being unnecessarily restrictive (infosec.pub)

I tried running a 2nd instance of Roblox simultaneously on macos 15 with another account but this shows up, if my mac can handle it then why can't it just let me do it? If I have two copies of an app like Roblox in separate User/Applications folders, macos moves them to the /Applications/ folder.

Sometimes it won't run apps claiming to be corrupted, so I then have to do sudo xattr -cr /Applications/someapp.app in the terminal and they run perfectly fine. It always nags me if I download apps from anywhere but mac app store. Some of these messages can only be gotten rid of by disabling system integrity protection, but then macos blocks you from running MAS apps due to having "permissive security".

I don't daily drive macOS anymore, I switched to Linux on my M1 mac where I can do whatever the hell I want.

was there a recent issue? i DEFINITELY had a working roblox launcher back before i distro-swapped this last time. it MIGHT’VE been through lutris? i can’t remember specifically now :/

Yup

What you're refering to is (was) probably Grapejuice, which worked great until roblox said "nope" and there it lies dead now.
