It is almost impressive how fundamentally you miss the point of so much going on here. The platform isn’t just the store, it starts with the phone and the OS. Apple has also cultivated a user base that has money and a willingness to spend on the platform. Again, since you keep thinking all of this is so easy, make your own phone, attract your own users, etc. Writing this out has distracted me enough to burn my pancakes. Moving on. Goodbye.

If you like android better spend your time there. If it is so easy to replicate what Apple has done then stop complaining and do it yourself.

Apple and Google are not the same, nor are the markets the same, which is why Google’s court case doesn’t apply to Apple.

Apple is not obligated to let third party stores operate on their platform. No matter how much you whine about it.

Apple controls the platform, which includes all of the software for their devices. I don’t care what republicans have to say on any topic.
