Apple is being too ridiculous at this point. Devs need App Store but Apple also need devs. Being so hostile is going to hurt them pretty bad, both for Apple and for Google.

Google already allows apps outside the Play Store, and third party app stores as well

  How did that work out for a Fortnite?

    Badly. Google needs to be regulated too.

      Because Google had scary warnings that downloading Fortnite from outside the App Store my lead to security vulnerabilities. Where did they ever get that idea from? https://www.cnet.com/news/just-as-critics-feared-fortnite-for-android-came-with-an-epic-security-risk/ https://www.cnet.com/news/just-as-critics-feared-fortnite-fo...

    I use F-Droid everyday to install and manage apps outside the Play Store and it works out fine for me. Android is also open source. If I don't like the way something is done then I'm free to change it, and there are multiple ROMs that I can choose from as well.

      Good luck with the “open source” version of Android and running apps that depend on Google Play Services.

Shut up dumbfuck. Everything has been completely fine forever with the App Store. This drama was completely fabricated out of thin air by Epic. You are proof that retarded plebs should not be taught how to read and write. It’s dangerous for gullible morons like you to be literate enough to spread your retarded as fuck ideas to other people.

I bet there are a lot of web apps that could be mobile apps too but it ain’t worth it to take the risk. That’s the BATNA.
