      you using the word "bribery" seems like an odd choice of words for you. I thought you would be above using inappropriate words to describe something. Also Epic hasn't paused getting exclusives, they are still getting them.

      Is Tim Sweeney not above using incorrect words or do you correct him when he calls Steam's cut a tax?

      Hold on, mainstream journalists use “tax” this way (https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2019/mar/13/spotify-claim-apple-30-percent-app-store-commission-unfair-european-commission-complaint …) but I haven’t seen them use “bribe” that way.

      I'd like to congratulate @eldsjal on his promotion from CEO of a multi-billion dollar music service corporation to... (checks notes) ..."mainstream journalist" for The Guardian. It was actually a well-written news article, with no real opinion from the journalist.pic.twitter.com/YGiXVDSl1F

      I can't read the entire article as it is behind a paywall. But, from what I can see, the journalist calls it a "toll" and a "charge". What you posted isn't what the journalist is calling it, but what "a growing number of companies" are calling it.

      That is exactly what all the news articles were saying. The one outlier Tim sourced was the personal diary of a blogger... Hardly classifies nor claims to be a journalist at all.https://twitter.com/Mortiel/status/1235774335656374272 …

      I am pretty sure he was just Googling "app store" and "tax" and posting whatever articles happened to pop up without actually reading them.

          Least duck duck go doesn't tell you to re-enable google play protect and delete any non google play apps. As someone launching an android app outside of google play, the fake "open" android ecosystem is a struggle.
