  • I’m not really sure how that would work. iOS has always been a closed system with apps needed to go through the store. The one store. And it’s thrived.

    Yes you can make the argument about jailbreaking to sideload etc. but realistically it was an os designed to have a single point of entry. I’m all for abandoning fees and more source options but this is not the way to that. Nor does this help completion or open up other avenues for a competing App Store. And let’s be honest, getting into the Apple ecosystem, you should already be aware of its limitations.

    It’s does give Tim Sweeney a hardon thinking he’s a winner.

    E- seriously, read the article. Follow the news. All this allows for is alternative payment systems to bypass apples fees. The point I made originally is still valid as Epic will still be collecting fees on its own stores. So let’s maybe lead by example? The Epic Games Store may not be you only option on PC. However it handles more “exclusive” distribution deals than any of the other pc stores.

    This is such an ill informed and disgusting comment. It comes from a place of media propaganda. Germany is having an issue with the AfD, yes, but the rest of the world is also struggling with far right extremism and its rise to power again. Go to Germany, you’ll change your outlook on the people, the culture, and hopefully regret the blanket statement you just made.
