Wouldn't this be true regardless of circumstance? I think the happy medium everyone should be striving for is just third party payment APIs that are blessed by the platform. This isn't about distribution (I don't think Epic cares if it's hosted on the App Store, Google Play, or not). It's all about payment processing. If Apple and Google had a blessed Payment API that let developers use alternative payment processors, this would go away I imagine. I know some users want more freedom, but this lawsuit really isn't about user freedom, it's about payments (and if users do get more freedom, e.g. able to install apps in alternative ways, it's a side effect of this, not the goal of the lawsuit) I wonder if Apple is forced to cut their fees in payments if they'll raise the developer fees to compensate, tiered based on size of the org.
