No kidding, Apple just hit the largest market value ever. Just that will influence the courts decision, not to mention Apple’s hold on the overall smartphone market. The way Apple has handled their App Store will really hurt them in the end.
Wordpress.com (Not .org) subscription system which is basically hosting and fancy customization things, nothing you could do pratically on a smartphone either way.
They wanted to force Wordpress in to implementing those features on their app so that Apple could take 30%. It makes no sense because the service has fuck all to do with Apple's infrastructure to begin with and has nothing to do with the app.
Imagine you use idk the Steam iOS app to buy a Windows game, it would be akin for Apple to request 30% out of that transaction despite Steam not even offering iOS games.
I've seen retards claimming that it's ok because Wordpress "uses" itunes to distribute the app.
Thing is you can't NOT USE Itunes, with Android you can at least install the .apk from other places (Like Nutaku). But iOS is closed, there's no way (that I know) to install a non-published app unless you're the one developping it.
And besides that you're already paying shitty developer fees to publish your app there, even if it's a free app, so no you're not "using their stuff for free".
Source: I worked developing apps for iOS and Android for a while, I despise Google but Apple's platform is pure aids. It can take weeks to get your app approved because it must be tested by an actual brainlet monkey who barelly understands the concept of electricity. I've got apps rejected because the retard testing it didn't had internet enabled, despite "internet required" being filled on their shitty application.
I’ve used this app before, and it’s pretty much just a basic app for managing WordPress blogs, hosted on WordPress.com or not.
It’s starting to seem like Apple is trying to lose the lawsuit Epic has against them.

30% of what?

u/altmehere does this post appear on the new page of KiA2?
It’s appearing for me. Not on the subreddit though; I’ve been only posting here to encourage people to use the .win.
