Hey a fellow Phoenotopia Awakening fan!
I love that game but I made the mistake of putting it down for a year. When I came back I was completely lost and had no idea what I had already done or what to do next. The game does not have quest logs and does not hold your hand this way. It’s a game where people might benefit from documenting their progress as they go, especially in case they ever take a break from it.

Yeah Apple is straight up user hostile to people running apps on MacOS not signed by Apple, and I don’t know why more people don’t talk about it and push back against it. They are one step away from removing the ability to freely install software on your own computer.
I don’t use itunes on mac or ios, so I use an app called NoTunes on MacOS that kills the itunes app whenever it launches.
