I think 30% is only unreasonable if apps in their ecosystem start to leave. Honestly, when the marketplace votes by staying on the platform at 30%, then it doesn't matter how ridiculous it seems to some of us, they're going to keep doing it.

There's no place to leave to. Or if you mean developers abandoning support for iOS and Mac, then yes, that is precisely what we did.

  How many of your users left you?

    No idea. We released a new Windows version around the same time which introduced DXVA support and sales overall went up. So if Apple users left, they were overcompensated by additional Windows users.

      So your product didn’t matter that much in the Apple software market to begin with.

It's 15% for developers making up to $1m a year. That's pretty reasonable compared to other distribution channels.
