The megacorp has previously said that 85% of developers on the App Store do not pay any commission.
Probably because the prices are too high? This point from Apple to defend the price, is actually against in my opinion. Probably only those rich companies have the money to pay. If the prices were lower, then more indie devs could pay.
@Anomandaris No. Its your fault not mine. It's apparent from the context I replied to. Think before you reply.
@i_failed_turing_test The kbin, Lemmy, Mastodon projects could be purchased, the maintainer payed to work for the companies, the community hosted servers can still be buyed out. I know this is not likely to happen. But saying it's not possible is not correct. Money is a hell of a drug.
@a@kbin.social I didn't think of hiding it myself. Instead installing an entire user script engine addon and this addon with enhancements, I decided to use the custom blocking feature of uBlock Origin. Now I have blocked the random posts and entries.
@Technological_Elite I don't understand what "Reddit for Lemmy" means. Is this some sort of application to convert Reddit posts to Lemmy or access through Lemmy?
@stopthatgirl7 While it sounds funny, until you realize, its also scary how rich people can just purchase and destroy any platform.
@magic_lobster_party I can't believe someone wrote that. Incorrect answers do more harm than being useful. If the person asks and don't know, how should he or she know it's incorrect and look for a hint?
@muddybulldog Apple provides a number of 85% of developers not paying commission and defends the price is not high. On the other hand I believe the price is high and therefore less people will pay. It's a simple math; make it cheaper, and more developers are willing to pay. Otherwise it probably doesn't make financial sense.
