To be clear, I'm talking specifically about Apple's App Store. I'm not sure about Microsoft, but Android's Play Store doesn't have the specific dark pattern I'm referring to. When I type Discord, Spotify or whatever on the Play Store, the perfect match app is displayed first and prominently. On Apple, the concurrent App is displayed first and takes more than half the screen.
