- philistine 6y agoExactly. Apple is arbitrary when applying their own terms. Like Darth Vader.
- skinnymuch 6y agoYeah. Your sibling comment drew a distinction, but it seems that distinction has arbitrary holes in its consistency as well. I’m sure if Patreon 50x’ed revenue and traffic starting next month — Apple would begin treating them more harshly.

- ec109685 6y agoIt’s because it’s for a good or service outside the app and not a digital good.
- skinnymuch 6y agoIs this actually applied properly and consistently? How is a Patreon of videos or audio different than Spotify or Netflix? Didn’t they both have to remove being able to subscribe via their iOS apps unless they wanted to lose a 30% cut? This makes it completely arbitrary then. As I can subscribe to a new Patreon in the app still.
