You can certainly compile and run your own apps, you need to pay the developer fee if you want to distribute the software to other people's Macs or iOS, or use advanced features like iCloud integration or push messages.

    I think you missed the part where the common user won't activate the scary feature that allows them to run arbitrary apps. You, as a dev, are in the minority. The point is that you could make a great app almost nobody would (be able to) use because you didn't pay Apple to let them run it.

    And push messages being an advanced feature is wild.
