Know the workplace rules! Steam: We take a 30% cut of profits on our store. Devs: Aww you're so sweet. Apple: We take a 30% cut of profits on our store. Devs: Hello? Human resources? | |||||||||||||||||

This get brought up often, and it’s such a lazy example. Apple forces you to give them their cut (you have to pay for developer license even just to keep your own personal apps on your phone). Valve isn’t forcing you to use Steam. | |||||||||||||||||

I cannot get apps on my iPhone from anywhere else but the App Store. While they are dominant, Valve isn't locking anyone in even on their own hardware. | |||||||||||||||||
