IMO Apple is making proactive moves to protect their store's rating system reputation, such as it is.
I've used RobinHood since 2016 (not my only brokerage) and the app continues to be fine. It's not a race car, it's more like a family sedan. The company has been reasonably good at messaging and a number of other brokerages also halted buying of $gme, $nok, etc.
So not only is RobinHood not getting a fair shake (we haven't even heard their side of things), but other brokerages are getting _way_ more than what's fair for them given that they did the exact same thing.

- themodelplumber 6y agoI know, crazy point I'm sure, but even if you have a bad reputation, you should work to keep it from getting worse. RH app reviews right now are going to be way too emotional, and they'll stay there no matter what RH does in the coming days. This will take Apple's reputation down a notch on both ends--app developer and app reviewer.
