Epic is not forced to put fortnite on ios as it is now, they choose to, but arent forced.
You should absolutely be free to opt into a walled garden if you want to, but do not force others to go into the garden to play
- maccard 3y ago> but do not force others to go into the garden to play I choose to live in the walled garden, and there is another option (android) for those who don't. You telling me the walls have to come down is you bringing your rules to the garden _I_ choose to be in.
- redeeman 3y agoclearly a great many iphone users would rather the non-walled garden, or they would just only install things that comes via it, and you have the best of both worlds? perhaps your wish (of convenient limitations) just isnt the most popular? I happen to largely agree that some of the walls apple puts up is for the best, but I would never presume to think I have the right to force that on others. Sure, keep their walled garden, if meta/epic/whatever does not want to play with that walled garden, well.. thats on them, and on their patrons to decide if they wish to patron
- maccard 3y agoThe walled garden isn't just what comes with the device, it's that plus the app store - knowing for example that any game I download will allow me to pay via apple pay, login with apple, manage my subscriptionz and cancel them in a sane way. > thats on them, and on their patrons to decide if they wish to patron This isn't giving the patrons a choice though, it's giving epic or meta a choice. The user has to accept whatever they do, and personally I trust apple to do that more than I do a random developer.
