        I mean, it’s what you’re celebrating.

        You can make some vague claims that it’s going to be good for small businesses and independent developers… but realistically it’s only going to pad the pockets of the already rich. Any benefit to anyone else is going to be negligible.

          I don’t even know what money you’re talking about. Hard to celebrate that.

          …you mean Apple? No. It will benefit literally everyone else.

            … do you think Apple is the only highly successful company in the world? There’s tons of others… like Epic.

            At least you admit to your ignorance, that’s the first step to actually knowing what the hell you’re talking about :)

              The only business who is losing anything here is Apple.

              Literally anyone else, including your solo dev kid cousin, who just made his first game, wins from this

              No just one of the most profitable in the world.

              Epic is not “successful”, by any standard.

              that’s the first step to actually knowing what the hell you’re talking about

              I know exactly what I’m talking about. I just don’t know what you’re talking about.
