It really bothers me that so much of this is focused on the developers, and that is the problem here. How many users actually want this? I am sure some, but I doubt it is a significant number.
I have said this before here, but I am not looking forward to when this likely eventually comes to the US and as a user I have less control over my phone, not more.
The walled garden is why I chose an iPhone and continue to stay with the ecosystem. Not being at the mercy of dark patterns that many website still employ when trying to cancel subscriptions or just not reminding me of a yearly subscription about to charge.
Apps having no choice but to get money from me by going through the App Store is a benefit to me as a User. Developers I also hope quickly realize that if they try to push me to subscribe outside of the App Store they will get $0 from me instead of 70%.
I continue to be worried about the Facebook's and similar companies (we already know Epic is doing it) forcing users outside of the App Store.
