The policies are more than fair.
People on HN get mad when others make money, but they never get mad when they want to make money too.
> You can have a properly curated store with 10% fees, for example. And you can block malware without blocking alternative web browsers or game streaming apps.
It becomes much more difficult and time consuming, and why 10%? The service is unbelievable - it provides great access to a platform and its high spending users. That is worth more than 10%.

Okay then, tell me what percent is fair. > People on HN get mad when others make money, but they never get mad when they want to make money too. The problem is not that they make money, it's that they are engineering a lack of competition in order to keep their prices arbitrarily high. > It becomes much more difficult and time consuming, and why 10%?

Charging a significant percentage for "providing access to users" is rent-seeking. That's not a good thing.
