That makes no sense whatsoever. Why are you giving advice for users in a thread about developers rights? 90% of the youth market uses an iPhone and that's the same market Epic is in. Outside of youths, 50% of the US population uses an iPhone.

Be a developer for another platform then. What makes the platform is both consumers and producers of apps. Vote with your wallet and your merchandise.

80% of the world is on Android, plenty of money to make there. Also as a developer whose employer targets Apple devices, I am more than at home with Apple's decisions. Don't like them? Target Android, Web,.. Check how open are games consoles for a change.
