I’m very proud of the fact that several tweets of mine in response to tweets by the Coalition for App Fairness resulted in responses from Sweeney himself. In each case he eventually left the discussion. It’s funny when a billionaire feels threatened…

Considering how close the votes were, I don’t see any of these bills advancing anywhere near their current state. As one Senator already stated, why isn’t Microsoft included? It’s almost like the bills were crafted to target specific companies and n…

Man, I see a lot of blocked posters at it (via quotes). Proves I was right to block those idiots/trolls in the first place. To the people who claim that iPhone users who stick to The App Store will remain safe while others who sideload can take the…

Any surprise a company that needs your data to function (monetize via ads) would make every attempt to keep the data flowing?

CheeseFreeze said: Throwing macOS under the bus (“the most advanced OS in the world”!) to defend their monopolistic cash-cow, the App Store. What a douche. Look in the mirror, d-bag. He didn’t say macOS was insecure. He stated that Apple …

I doubt Apple has anything to worry about. A few minor changes can address all issues. I can see them allowing subscription services on multiple platforms to allow links to outside signup (Spotify, Netflix). This will cost Apple little since most p…

Just proves you can go to Harvard and still be an idiot. Either that or he’s getting paid to say what Epic wants him to. iOS isn’t “meaningfully more secure”. Based on what? There are significant differences between them and for him to minimize tho…

Did they actually just claim consumers don’t know how to get an App on another platform? So if I’m using Spotify on iOS and I want to get it on Android I can’t just go to Google Play and search for “Spotify”? how could someone say this with a stra…

Quote by Tim Sweeney (Via Twitter) back in 2019 on why it’s good that only the Epic Store distributes their software. There’s a saying: “You’re safe because the pilot is on the plane with you”. Epic relies on the Epic Games store as the sole way we…
