I love seeing these two assholes fight.

I think this is good though. Another data point of Apple not allowing true competition on their platform. Oh, you want your own app store? BAM! You're banned. Especially now that it seemed Epic was gonna comply with this last set of ridiculous rules.

We might get a proper way to sideload if they keep this up. We'll see...

The EU has already told Apple they have to allow side loading of apps. Probably won't help anyone in the United States but maybe you can get California on it, as they seem to like copying EU law.

I think it's only third party appstores for now. That's why I'm hoping this will encourage stricter regulation
