Exactly. And to anyone complaining about Apple fees. Get this in your head: running that ecosystem costs money. I get it that sometimes crap slips through, no system is bulletproof. But that's where the cut goes to. Yeah, we can discuss if it's 15 or 30 percent. But you at least get a human to communicate with on the other side.

- JPws_Prntr_Fngr 3y agoSorry, what? Are you talking about the iOS App Store that's been an unmitigated dumpster fire for like a decade? I don't even open the thing, ever. It's so filled with flaming garbage that I will only find and acquire an iOS app via reddit, HN, or AlternativeTo.
- rad_gruchalski 3y agoI don't know what you are talking about. This isn't my experience and I valued human contact some years ago when I was doing iOS development myself. Not my experience. However, I appreciate that my experience may not reflect the experience of another iPhone user.
- JumpinJack_Cash 3y ago> > And to anyone complaining about Apple fees Hackers don’t complain about fees they complain about the inability to have such fees subsidized by Fortune500 companies. This is what happened for years when hackers and wiseguys would pirate Microsoft products…up in Redmond they just kept the score and passed the bill onto the big corporate clients who’d never pirate anything out of fear of lawsuits. This is how things work in every realm, the catious elite subsidise the risktaking poor.
- rad_gruchalski 3y agoGood point.
