Why put up with Apple's bullshit?
Pull back all niche apps and games from their stupid platform and let them die alone.
MS does not need Apple.
Epic does not need Apple.
Why do you accept that crap?

If developers pull back their apps they'll lose their income. I'm sure you don't need food on the table and can do things like that.

You saw the decision on the Epic vs. Apple case, right?
No more Fortnite and Fortnite updates on Apple.

What do you think people are going to do?
Ditch their favourite game or ditch Apple's platform?
I am pretty sure they'll just use a PC from now on.

People are not going to stop buying iphones though. Epic will lose the people who for various reasons are not in the market for a gamer pc.
I doubt you'll see any conversions to android, which also have the exact same rates as apple. Google haven't been cracking down on it as much as apple, but they've started.

I dislike iphones as much as the next Android guy, but this isn't going to do much - if anything- to Apple and Google isnt much better.
