How do you feel about Apple’s App Store tax in comparison to Google’s?

Pull Fortnite from Apple store, then. Show them that you don't agree with their revenue split with your actions.

Fortnite is available direct from Epic where that’s allowed (PC, Mac, Android) and in the platform stores where it’s not. This is just an artifact of the 30% fees though. We’d be on Google Play and Steam if either fees were 12% or less, or we could process payments ourselves.

Apple Music on Play store doesn't uses Google's IAP services. Since, I have a credit card saved with them, When I signed up for a Apple music sub, They automatically charged my card without showing any prompt asking for payment details. Wasn't this possible with fortnite?

Or does Apple gets a pass because they are huge?

Google selectively enforces its rules on payments for digital goods. They seem to allow it with Apple Music and with some online dating services, but disallow it for digital goods in other non-game categories and for all games.

This policy explicitly discriminates against games. Google allows third party payment processing in the document https://play.google.com/about/developer-distribution-agreement.html … but then they retract it and blacklist games on https://play.google.com/intl/en-US/about/monetization-ads/ ….
