Unless the EU makes Apple get rid of the yearly cost per installation, any app store other than Apple's is limited by the inability to have free or freemium apps, giving them a substantial disadvantage in comparison.

They need to self-host their repository if they don't want to end up in the same situation...
As long as someone backed up the repository, it can still be forked, right?
Is that how Elonomics works?
STATEMENT from Google workers with the No Tech for Apartheid campaign on Google’s mass, retaliatory…
Clearly they meant "Don't (do the right thing), be evil"
Wouldn't SimilarWeb not be counting people who watch streaming services via apps rather than their websites? As that would be most of the traffic for those services, it not being counted would skew results in favor of FMovies, since it doesn't have a comparable app.
There's also an existing template to mark the talk pages of editors suspected of having a conflict of interest based on their edit history.
Rather than talk about what Wikipedia should or shouldn't do to improve, people should take the initiative of helping to improve it themselves. Wikipedia is ultimately a collective of its volunteer editors, so the best way of enacting change on the platform is getting more people to make informed, unbiased improvements to articles.
Unless it's just taking a while to come down from the scene group heavens, some 4K TV show seasons seem to be perpetually missing, presumed due to Widevine L1. Oddly, sometimes half of a show's 4K seasons are released while the others aren't.
On iOS at the very least, being unable to download apps from a source other than Apple is monopolistic behavior, as it does not allow the free market to determine what the added fee for app hosting and payment processing should be (versus an artificial 30% fee that bolsters Apple's profit margins), as well as limiting what apps are or aren't available on the basis of Apple's own app store policies. Apple can run their app store as they see fit, but as a consumer I should have to option to download apps from competing app stores.
From the perspective of a piracy community, however, that's not a win.
