Fuck the stupid morons who defend Apple.

Imagine if Microsoft banned Windows users from installing the software they want on their computer.

Imagine if Microsoft required all software developers to give them 30% of their earning or Microsoft will ban them from Windows

Hating on Apple for their 30% cut is popular.

Hating on Google for their 30% cut is popular.

Hating on Microfot, Sony, and Nintendo for their cuts is popular.

But somehow hating on Steam for their 30% cut is going too far.

You get value from Steam for paying that.

What value do you get from Apple for paying the Apple tax? A higher price for a phone that could cost 500€ less?
