Should they now pay 30% of the App Store subscriptions to Github for hosting their infrastructure?
- aurareturn 3y agoNo because Github and the App Store/iOS/iPhone are two different business models.
- meiraleal 3y agoJust like My business and the App Store/iOS/iPhone
- aurareturn 3y agoI have a business that sells tomatoes in a can. It's very different than Walmart's business. Yet, I'd have to pay put my products in Walmart.
- xigoi 3y agoHowever, customers who bought their frying pan at Walmart can still buy their canned tomatoes from other stores.
- eyelidlessness 3y agoIf that were GitHub’s terms for hosting the code, maybe this would make some kind of sense to ask. Otherwise it seems like comparing apples and a chip on your shoulder.
- stephenr 3y agoPresumably Apple pays the fees GitHub have specified up-front, or they'd not use their services. Isn't that how things work? A company provides something for a fee and potential customers decide if they're going to use said thing in exchange for said fee..?
- luqtas 3y agoyou mean Github paying Apple 30% of what they make when Copilot use their code? :D
