I hate fortnite for what it is. I love unreal engine for what it is. Regardless of my stake in Apple/Epic is, I think this needs to be addressed. The economics of platforms as a monopsony are damaging. We see it in other areas too. Uber Eats and what is effectively extortion of small business restaurants. It's like the definition of economic rent, and it's a mess of bad incentives.
I would strongly support a system that forced operators to either run at cost or to charge any price but allow sideloading.
A maximum profit margin on services like could also be viable.
