It meets the requirements of every kind of user.

If the game was still playable on MacOS after the ban, then it's Epic to blame for this.
Epic just lost credibility after CCP-based Tencent took over and gained 30% stake. Some right-handed devs reportedly left Epic shortly after. Yes, they have a game engine (Unreal Engine), but this changes nothing. 5% contribution of any game that uses the platform to Epic is greedy if the engine could be just a one-time purchase. Apple gives its Metal API engine for free. Android devs can just enjoy using Unity if it cooperates with ads providers.
Fortnite is also filled up with underage and the gaming community is a joke. Banning some streamers proves it. Hardly other devs ban streamers for any reason.

Epic is not an indie developer at all, and just wait a few quarters from now, when they get hit with the loss of in-app purchases from apple users.

How it’s unfair? It’s exact same what everyone else asks. Who decide what is the right price for having access to most popular app store in the market? What you get from being in appstore can’t bought with money, expect if you don’t actually pay it for Apple :) or for google.
If developers don’t agree with 30% fee, they can try to sell the apps and games for Android elsewhere with failing badly because hardly no-one would ever hear from you. So which is better.

Thats a unfair and had to change. haven't you read, 2020 Q1 appstore gaming revenue is $22bn. They collecting that money just for using there platform. That monopoly has to change. Epic remove their game and give 20% discount on V bucks. Don't talk without knowing, typical apple fanboys.

[deleted post]What you mean? This is epic fault, Apple even said they can put fortnite back to appstore if epic change the game like it was before, Epic denied to do that. This is in Epic hands. Apple haven’t done anything wrong just like judge comfirmed, Epic asked this.

[deleted post]You have to be young teenager who is still in school if you don't understand that Epic broke contract and they didn't do it accidentally. They knew exactly what they were doing and now they pay for it. Just like judge said, Apple doesn't need to put fortnite back to AppStore. Epic did this situation to themself, they asked trouble and they got it. Now they will lose millions and millions and also made millions of players mad. Looks like Epic doesn't care much of their players.
