Chris Trottier (nprofile…rtmv) the clients don't speak ActivityPub so they wouldn't be banning ActivityPub
and yes, I've worked on multiple Fediverse apps that have been blocked at review and threatened to be banned by Apple for tons of nonsense compliance requirements that cannot be complied with because the app publisher doesn't control the content the app displays.
Apple seems to have loosened up their review process a bit since 2020, but it did cause us to stop building on the Fediverse @ work because of this. We determined it is a dead end if they can ban our app regardless of us owning the entire server infra (vs the Twitter or Insta model where you don't control anything)
