Let’s not pretend that it’s hurting the little developer.
It came out in the Epic trial that 80%+ of App Store revenue comes from in app purchases of play to win games.
The biggest players that aren’t games like Netflix, Spotify and other “reader apps” [sic] have forced you to do subscriptions outside of the app store for years.
Then other apps are physical goods where you don’t have to use in app purchases and they can use Apple Pay (regular credit card processing fees).
