I wish people weren't so quick to jump to this simplistic "who's the good guy and who's the bad guy?" mentality. It's quite possible for Epic to be a bad guy in their own right and still have a valid grievance against Apple, and it's quite possible that it would be better for a lot of smaller devs that this was changed even if Epic is doing this for their own bottom line's sake, not because they are altruistic.
- brnt 6y agoTo be clear: I'm not painting Epic to be bad or good, just that they're as much after their bottom line as the incumbents. That produces a potentially beneficial change for the incumbent platforms, but also a potentially negative change in the same way that having another video streaming service with a proprietary library does not add value at this point.
