I must admit i don't particularly understand where this (alleged?) ignorance is coming from. The reasons are the same as they were ten years ago on the ios platform. It's for the consumer. It makes the consumer's experience better.
Pretending that consumers deserve an inferior netflix experience because you believe companies shouldn't charge each other money is insane.

- maxwell22 3y agoI use Android (work) and iPhone (personal) phones. My experience with Apps on iPhone is much better. The Apps are better, there is less trash, the Apps get less of my personal data. This is valuable to me. Maybe App developers for iPhone are just better human beings than Android developers. I think that’s not the case, and it’s due to the walled garden. We can argue about why this is the case. But at my company many have both ecosystems in their pockets all day, and no one has a private Android phone for these reason. Sample size 100+ people, with better things to do in life than recompiling code for their phones. I get that if you want to hack on your phone, iPhone is not the right phone for you. The user experience for hacking on your phone vs using your phone as a non SW developer are allowed to be completely different. One market is significantly larger than the other.

- mensetmanusman 3y agoA better experience for Apple users is in the universe where web apps function and aren't crippled to support a rent seeking business.
