I've been using this the past few weeks to try and cross compile my software. Clang works, but a lot of the core libraries are missing. pkgbuild for instance won't work.

The app needs to be reversed engineered and have a 3rd party reimplemention. Even if it's slightly inferior, it's always good to have an alternative.

About a year ago when AI was getting really big, I was really interested in C2PA, since then I've come to the conclusion that actual artists don't care about any of that crap
