The question is why is it %36 instead of the 30% on the app stores for app developers. did apple get a little greedy about it? i'm surprised apple never raised the price further as a way of blackmailing Google, to keep its defualt search position on iPhones.

Just because competitors do exist, doesn't mean much. example: There are competitors to Youtube, yet they raise Youtube premium prices and go after ad blockers and get away with it. I assume it's ultamately to make money back from Youtube tv price hiles from disney content such as nfl. I do hope it's not just to rack in more cash just because they can, but that's another possibility too.
If Rumble raised their prices, they would go out of business, while Youtube would not be as heavily impacted. If it's determined in court to not be a monopoly, there's some kind of illegal behavior going on pottentially and that's what they are trying to figure out in court.
Why don't people make more commercial products too compete. No one seems to do that anymore. to be clear i'm talking make their own commercial operating system, their own PC, and smartphone lineup.
Come on Duckduckgo there's your chance to shine if you're really not just secretly a part of Microsoft in disguise.
I understand that too, as there are less users then mastodon, although I found the interaction to be pretty tolerable on lemmy in the comments on some of the communities i've joined, untill you get into more niche communities.
if it's a different instance.
if you like anime you can try Sakurajima.moe, the staff and users on that particular instance are conversaters.
I wouldn't use mastodon without hashtags, but they have their limitations and potential short comings.
That's a way to look at it.
Say someone was accused of doing something, but there was no proof, even though they knew they did the thing except for the judge, and everyone knows they did the thing, just keep your lips sealed during all questions and claim the 5th.
lemmyverse.net one of my favorites.
Twitter doing this was by design, while Mastodon doesn't tend to shadow ban. I might make my guesses about why, but I don't know the actual complete reasoning as to why it seems to be better for discusion on Lemmy.
I guess that's particularly what I meant. While mastodon you'd have to build up a following to get anywhere near even the amount of comments on this post right here. Unless you get lucky with one or two posts which can happen, I known an owner of a smaller Mastodon instance (with more then 300 users so not the smallest of small instances but still small.) to manage to get over 100 likes and over 50 boosts on a post, and when they did they linked to it and was like, "ha, see you can get traction on Mastodon."
lol that's funny, but I assume it's to make it super clear that it is infact a bot to most people.
