I do not understand why they didn't touch the point on Tim Cook lying before Congress, when he said that Apple doesn't make special deals with company, and then it later surfaced that Netflix and Amazon get a special deal...

Great analogy, I just fear the classic answer will popup “Imagine if you wish to sell your product inside Walmart”...

Depends if you mean on purpose or accidentally. Because I contemplate on purpose perhaps once or twice per week, where I lie down and think a little about life. But the accidental ones, those are the real deal. As an ever fateful watchmen,

Today's average smartphone is a more general computing device than the PC 20 years ago when Microsoft had it's anti-trust case. And Apple is far more egregious than Microsoft in this case. Would love to hear other views.

Unpopular opinion, but people don't care, especially non-technical persons. They just want a good UX, nothing more.

Great to hear this! Another win for the EU. Finally someone defends the right of the developers, and at least tries to put a stop to Apple and it's hug of death. Microsoft had the same issues, and it is only natural and fair Apple goes

Full support, of course Apple and other similar companies are using all the tools to their advantage. If I do not "own" the digital goods are paid for, then make them change from "Buy" to "Rent for 10 years", a

An interesting article, the now staple monthly "why isn't GoodReads fixed or disrupted?". And again the answer is the same, which it seems like a lot of people keep avoiding. There is no viable business model for an alternati

I would much rather have personalized ads than have the early 2000s ads (hot single ladies, making $100k a day, etc.). It seems to me that no matter what Google does, there will be pitchforks ready. What is so horrible about FLoC if I as th

Yikes, talk about bad PR. I am sorry that this happened to you, but thank you for sharing this, you are not the first one, nor the last one by the looks of it. I intend to avoid Twilio in a wide range, don't need that kind of a "

How can it be illegal? It is their platform, their own rules, right? If you don't like it, then just don't use it. There are other platforms which are more than good enough. /s if not obv, I'm making fun of people defen

Unfortunately this is the "dark side" of entrepreneurship, and people show be made more aware of it. We all love to open HN and read the new PG essay and dream "I am the one", but the odds are not in our favor. The extre

I'm just curious, do you and the people who agree with you think that Apple should also be split up? I personally am more Microsoft friendly, simply for the reason that they always had and have an open platform to everyone. I'm ho

I won't go into the morality of this particular issue if Apple or Google is right or wrong in this case, but I do think that Apple and Google are slowly but surely pushing their limits... Even if they are right, no government wants to

Oh what a burden it is to host APKs of 10 MB for people to download and use.. Let's stop the pretense that Google and Apple are doing us a big favor with hosting our apks for download. They are not paying for my cloud storage or cloud

Wow, a pretty good article to read. Didn't expect it honestly, especially worth reading about how many apps a typical reviewer checks and that they do not have a technical background..

I don't understand how can you allow this to happen? I get one platform being down, but for all of your platforms to be down is not a good sign. I only realized now that I only used Facebook platforms to communicate with my friends, an

Every so often, I would say like at least twice a month, someone publishes a new article regarding Goodreads and how it sucks. And I really enjoy reading these articles, they are not wrong in any way, Goodreads sucks, yet people (including

Hmm, I see that they use Stripe. Can someone explain how does this not count as In-App-Purchases? I would expect Apple to be all over this and apply it's Mafia cut?

I am always amazed and surprised when reading comments on HN regarding Apple, even though I know what I will read. No matter what Apple does, the Apple apologists come out of the woods to defend their overlords. I always like to play a litt
