Seems like the type of thing that would change pretty quickly if developers demanded an experience that wasn't complete trash. How quickly would Apple fold if

  The problem is that it is chicken and egg. If all the developers switched their ecosystem would be crap and they would need to fix the experience or the users would leave. However right now it is profitable to target their users, even if it is awkward, so why wouldn't Apple (from an economic incentive) milk the developers for every penny they have. Apple is very much biting the hand(s) that feed here.

    It's one thing to say that it's a chicken and egg problem for existing businesses that make money in the Apple ecosystem. It's another thing when you are still seeing new development efforts. It's 2020, this shit has been happening for a while, and it's no secret. I haven't figured out why a self-respecting developer would subject themselves to that nonsense.
