No, it is completely misleading because:
this change will not impact a single developer outside the EU.
Any developer not using a third party app store will also not be affected.
You can still build free apps and literally nothing changes assuming you use Apple’s app store.
Like I said, it is a shit policy, but for nearly all developers nothing changes.
The video’s thumbnail said Apple is killing free apps. That is a complete lie. There is not an ounce of truth to it.
If this is a complete lie, then their new policy "option" is 100 "complete lies". I support any effort to get out the word that apple is anti competitive as fuck, a video title being 30% inaccurate does not change that for me at all.
