Update: it may be limited to those using a hackintosh in conjunction with beeperserv (the jailbreak tweak). Still kind of lousy of them to lock the reddit topic though…

Several users recently reported that after using pypush—the tool that Beeper paid $25,000 for in order to build Beeper Mini—Apple banned their genuine Apple hardware devices from accessing iMessage.

When their comments were shared to the r/Beeper subreddit, one of the mods whom Beeper appointed decided to lock the comments, citing the “need to investigate this further” and directing concerned users to “reach out to support through the appropriate channels.”

    At this point in my life I’m just tired of fighting my devices.

    Apple draws the line on some seriously questionable/stupid stuff and when faced with that your only choice is to deal with it.

    If Android ever tried to force icons to auto-arrange like iOS does, it would be fixed by seven different guys within a week.

      You can’t get floating browser popups that cover your home screen and menu buttons on iOS. Somehow this is possible on a Galaxy S22 that a family member has. It’s apparently some app that’s allowed to do this outside of the Notification permission that I disabled for everything. I’ll take a forced gird of icons over that.
