Users are allowed to criticize devices they use. Do you think your phone is perfect and nothing can be improved? I think being able to install other app stores is an improvement on my device. "If you don't like it, leave" doesn't actually address the criticism. It's an informal fallacy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ergo_decedo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ergo_decedo . "If Apple don't like the EU's laws, they can just leave, but they don't so therefore they must be okay with the laws". You see how the "therefore" isn't true? That's why it being actual free market competition where consumers have a choice is the real test. If 100% of people on iOS want to stick exclusively with the Apple App Store, then it being forced open won't matter because all other stores will fail when no user installs them. On the other hand, if users are willing to use those other stores, maybe iOS users don't actually care about using exclusively Apple's App Store. Then the only one who benefits from blocking that is Apple to charge their extra fees. Look at their reasoning for removing Fortnite from the store: because Epic added an additional payment processor that wasn't Apple. It's not like they removed Apple payment as an option either. So users had the benefit of more choices!
