Fuck closed off mobile stores, it’s all a scam.

Why are we ceding control over our personal computers to organizations who would limit our use of them?

If we have platforms capable of running arbitrary code then we should be able to do it.

Good. If I download an app with the intent to pay a content creator who uses that app to post content, I don’t see why my choice of app store should have any bearing on how much of that money goes to the content creator, nor why the company who hosts that app on their store should get any income from said internal payments whatsoever.

Patreon (and everyone else) already pays Apple to simply host the app in their store. Apple is double-dipping by doing this and throwing an absolute fit comparable to that of a toddler who was just told “no”.

I’m glad everyone is getting away from the Apple tax.
