  Read better.

  Oh my, this is embarrassing for you. Look at my very first line in my quote:

  "Nothing prevented Epic from opening their own Appstore on Android. "

  So is this where I tell you to “read better”?

    Oh my, this is embarrassing for you. Look at your previous comment:

    The article is talking about a new app store. A new app store wasn’t part of “this shit”.

    It very clear is. Read better.

      My whole thread was specifically about Android. You know what? You’re looking to salvage a victory out of this based upon pedantry. If you’re that bad off that you need that, go ahead and take the win if you can call it that. I hope your circumstances get better in the future.

        This isn’t your thread, it’s mine. You replied to me. My comment was clearly about Apple (among others). The OP was about Apple. There’s nothing I need to “salvage”. Have a nice day.

  The iOS version also has nothing to do with their lawsuit of Apple, they lost that one. It’s due to an unrelated law in the EU, which is why this is only available in the EU.

    There’s absolutely no way it is a coincidence and unrelated. Epic drew attention to it. EU followed through.

      So your source is just a gut feeling? Back it up

      The EU has had digital legislations since long before that lawsuit. Or do you think Epic is also responsible for GDPR?.

      So you think that the European commission saw a lawsuit in a different country and decided “We need that” then rushed to write the entirety of DMA in less than 4 months. If you think DMA and Epic lawsuits are related the most possible order of events is that Epic saw what was going to be passed in the EU and decided to suit Apple and Google to get the same in the USA

        …are you not aware that GDPR and DMA are not the same thing?
