Referring to Apple as 'Greedy Tim' is very short sighted. Tim has a job to do. His job is to generate ROI for investors. They are a publicly traded company, whose only purpose is to generate profit. The view that publicly traded companies exist for any other purpose is both short-sighted and ill-informed. Companies that virtue-signal by doing otherwise always course correct when those ideas start to hurt the bottom line, and thus the stock price, which is the measurement of their success. 

That all being said, Apple SHOULD make money from providing the platform, the tools, the support, the marketing, and the market. Every other company gets paid when they do these things. The app store is NOT a monopoly. Nor is the iPhone. You have a choice to buy an iPhone, or a different phone. When you make that CHOICE, you agree to the rules that come with buying the product. Just as the developer shave a choice to produce apps for the iPhone or not. If the business terms are so terrible dealing with Apple, then don't develop for Apple products. Develop an app so good that users will switch platforms to buy your app.

Oh great, another season of left-wing propaganda disguised as a tv show. Couldn't stand to finish season 3, I want to be entertained, not consistently feel berated because my views don't match those of the producers/writers.

I am curious if you test these updates before pushing out these articles? I can't find Snoopy screen savers, or the 21:9 support. Other sites are reporting that these features are delayed.

From my experience Matter is super finicky. I have a good number of Matter devices, and recently they all went offline. Not a single one is accessible in Apple Home. I did update one of my Apple TVs (the most recent 4K) with the Latest Public Beta of TVos 18. I do not know if that caused the issue, but I have since unplugged it, as there is still no way to not have it be selected as my home hub. It didn't help. The complications of Thread on top of the Matter protocol, and it just feels like it is all unfinished. Things used to work fairly consistently with Apple Home, but the introduction of Thread and Matter have changed that, and not in a good way.
