#MeToo was always about leverage for career progression or compensation  not justice. Implicit grievance for explicit reward.

Apple should have only conceded fee% in return for broader device category (iOS/iPadOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS) & 1st party framework support by the developer;

1 device = 30%

So Apple is advertising and bringing more users to apps whose developers resent it because they buy the app through the App Store which is NORMAL buyer behaviour!! What am I missing here?!

Clearly you’re missing the self-entitled freakishness that’s sweeping Western society in general.

It wouldn't be hard for Apple to allow developers to opt out of Apple's free advertising.  If that's really what they want, no problem.

Why would Apple not want to drive App Store revenue? & those riding their coattails get to make money too!

“when you buy from Apple: sorry, you're Apple's customer, not ours”
So they admit that we’re Apple’s customers. That would mean it’s they who are poaching customers, not Apple.
