Paraphrased: we're not just mad, but we're also disappointed 😛

Me too, EU. Me too.

From later in the interview, specifically re questions on Apple’s Core Technology Fee:

“We have a toolbox of fines, of doubling fines, of potential breakup of companies”

"We have a very strong toolbox to ‘punish’”

…

"I expected [noncompliance] cases… I'm a bit surprised we have so many cases, so soon, and with more in the pipeline”

@gruber @stroughtonsmith John, me, and many other Europeans are just disappointed with Apple sticking by the non-compliance and guarding these App Store fees and control and losing their face over this. Your interview with Craig and him saying “you can always go to Android” was just icing on the cake.

I used to adore Craig, Phil and Joz. Now I don’t and I’m sad 😔

Just as the EU, as an Apple fan I’m not only mad. I’m mostly disappointed. 😢

@gruber @stroughtonsmith in one word: COMPETE. This is what @mgs was writing a long time ago.

Now they don’t have to compete because they’re the only game in town. IAP sucks and it’s OK for them. Other App Stores don’t exist because CTF. They feel entitled to all that just like @marcoarment was saying on @atpfm

But you actually provoked me to write a longer piece and put all my thoughts about DMA and IAP in writing ✍️ from a European dev perspective. Gimme a moment 😎
