    They don’t want a walled garden. They like Apple products because they all work together and the walled garden is a symptom of that that people have to put up with.

    Alternative app stores and sideloading are only good for consumers. It means that Apple has less control over what apps people are allowed to download, they can’t take as much revenue from developers, and it has zero impact on those that don’t care, but a huge benefit for those that do.

      I want the walled garden and use Apple products.

      Alternative app stores and sideloading is ONLY good for big corporations. Epic will not charge less for their products on their app store and it opens up the product for extremely poor security and an inconvenient user experience with shitier features.
