This random tweet cracked me up because, like, it's a 30% cut. It affects the bottom line by 30%. That's the nice part about the term, "30% cut", is that you don't have to guess how much it's affecting the bottom line. It's 30%. Because it's a 30% cut. That's what the 30% means.https://twitter.com/mikeynmfc/status/1445986678871527425 …

How much does it affect the bottom line? It’s unclear. We can never know.

What we need is a brave whistleblower from Roblox to leave the company with copies of the thousands of internal documents we need to scrutinize in order to tease out exactly how much a 30% cut took off $923.89mil in reported revenue.

Even if we had that it’s still a doctoral research project to compute it.

(it's actually insane thinking about that number... Apple made $300M from rblx doing fuck all)

Well, they do have to employ all the people who sit around making arbitrary decisions about what to allow on the platform. Like, does this app or that app potentially reduce iTunes revenue? I mean, maybe? It's a hard call, Shawn! You need top people for these positions.
