    I’m going to roll my eyes: if you read the change it’s literally ‘Instead of cmd-clicking, you need to hit ‘okay cool’ in the control panel’, not YOU CANT RUN UNSIGNED SOFTWAER!!@11!!111

    The reason for this change was, shockingly, because malicious asshats were putting up malware pages telling people ‘oh you have to cmd-click to install totally legit thing here!’ and this puts a nice warning up in front of less-educated people in the hopes of preventing the spread of malware.

    I’m 100% for this change since it literally adds 3 seconds of clicking a single time for an app, and makes it where my family members are less likely to get totally screwed over.

        I’m literally using 15.1 right now, and set up 86box las tonight which is unsigned.

        You hit a button in the control panel, say ‘fine’, enter your password and it runs.

        So no, that’s not how it works and he’s just plain wrong, but it’s Lunduke who is usually wrong when he’s not being a chud, so that’s the usual for him.

      This makes sense. Still, as someone who used Marcos on and off for 4 years, there’s literally been times where I gave up on frustration because some sort of app didn’t run for “security” reasons
