I’ve never used a Mac, can you not just write your own app and run it? I do that on windows all the time.

This is so dumb. Of course you can run an app coded by your friend. Either your friend can pay $100 a year to notarize their app, or you can pay $100 a year to run his app as a developer. Couldn’t be easier. Edit: apparently I need to add /s. I figured this was a stupid enough take that it was obvious.

WINDOWS PROTECTED YOUR COMPUTER 🍑 We have detected 🍆 and unverified app attempting to run on ~~our~~ your device and stopped it.

I can tell this meme is old because windows does the same shit MacOS does now and has been since at least Windows 10

IT professional here with 20+ years work experience. Not once have I ever met another tech that liked Apple. Personally, I despise them. Unintuitive locked down garbage that can't do anything a PC can't do for half the price. And yes, I have seen viruses on Macs. They're just really good at advertising to people who don't understand technology.

I have no problem running apps from friends or myself on my macs?

@saigot@lemmy.ca 2026-04-16 16:35
By default windows does block unverified binaries. It's pretty annoying. You have to click more info and then run anyway:

@jaschen306@sh.itjust.works 2026-04-16 10:46
There are also viruses on MacOS. Just sayin'.

@wander1236@sh.itjust.works 2026-04-16 14:23
The macOS Gatekeeper quarantine is stupid, and Windows loves detecting random files as malware and deleting them while you're using them and not restoring them even after you tell it to allow the "threat".

Windows itself is a virus

Remember when people thought you couldn't get viruses on macOS? I even knew some people who thought you couldn't get a virus on Linux

It's almost the opposite of this?

@abbiistabbii@piefed.blahaj.zone 2026-04-16 19:03
Sounds like a step towards forcing developers to pay Microsoft to let them run their software on Windows.

Well that script was ran on enough other computers, so the magic algorithm decided if everyone else ran it, it must be fine.

@pivot_root@lemmy.world 2026-04-16 00:34
What language was it written in? I read that Microsoft Defender likes to flag the baked-in runtime of some languages as malware because they commonly shows up in actual nalware.
-
@aeronmelon@lemmy.world 2026-04-15 22:27
The script was from a verified source.
-
@Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 2026-04-16 09:52
You mean it was flagged as malware? You must have written something that was deemed very suspicious. Or it is one of the few false positives. Also, that batch script would be flagged the moment it ran.
-
@pivot_root@lemmy.world 2026-04-16 00:50
That is incredibly ironic. It relies on the .NET runtime already existing on the system, so it can't even be excused as a false positive mistaking an embedded language runtime as malware.

@Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 2026-04-16 10:36
If it does requests to a website it can be flagged too, i was doing a web scrapper for some sites, since i had to test it, i runned it often while developing, windows decided to delete the exe
