This is a massive development — it might be a sea change moment. I think this sets a new precedent and we’ll see a lot of other companies with high market penetration follow suit. Fortnite sidestepping Google Play wasnt as impactful as this https://t.co/zEugWbOPPv

Hmm, as a user, I prefer to pay for apps & subscriptions through the play store, much safer IMO. As a member of @prjkt_io though, I do agree that @GooglePlay

needs to make some changes to make the play store more developer friendly. https://t.co/tYpoKYWz98

The story here isn't that apps are bypassing Google Play's payment methods, it's that Google *allows developers to choose their payment gateway* while Apple does not. If a developer wants to build their own payments tooling, that should be allowed.https://t.co/LCEjzYeTZ6

The idea that an OS vendor should get a 30% cut of any digital product or subscription sold in an app is going to increasingly look greedy beyond belief.

The fact that these apps bear all the cost while free ad supported apps pay nothing is most absurd.https://t.co/O6fkUc9KSq
