I’m saying those claims you make come across without much merit, and sounds more like Epic talking points that’s not selling me on using Epic on iOS to buy apps.

Even when it comes to side loading it’s more emulation and hope for a Foss store like F-droid showing up on iOS which itself is very niche. Other than Fortnite I’m not really seeing much incentive to spend money over Apple store.

And this is Apple we are talking about. A consumer base that is used to spending more, so if I’m spending money on apps currently Apple gives me more confidence in the purchase with it being the Apple hardware and OS. And why wouldn’t I take into account Epic’s behavior when it comes to the PC?

If you are going to be trying to prop up Epic as some savior with talking points like sticking it to Apple for being anti competitive why wouldn’t I take into account Epic’s anti competitive behavior themselves when it comes to if this is a store I should spend money on or look at alternatives. I’m not just going to throw money at a company just for the sake of it being an alternative if I as a consumer who is spending money doesn’t see a benefit to doing so.
