if that's how things worked then we wouldn't be having all this commotion. Part of the reason why devs are going after apple is because they /can't/ charge more on iOS compared to other platforms and they /can't/ explicitly state that they have to pay 30% to apple.
- jacquesm 5y agoExactly. It's as if the mob is your 'businesspartner' and you can't tell your customers that you have to pay them off, nor can you tell them to come to your home after closing to buy it there for the real price.
- jsnell 5y ago> Part of the reason why devs are going after apple is because they /can't/ charge more on iOS compared to other platforms That is not true. As a specific counter-example, subscribing to YouTube Premium via the iOS app costs extra compared to subscribing to it via the website or Android.
- Jensson 5y agoIs that true in general or did Apple and Google make a special deal on this? Apple and Google are very friendly to each other so I see why Apple would let them do this.
