It looks like Apple is finally going to allow third-party app stores, which is a pretty big win. Why are they doing it? Upcoming EU requirements that will hit in 2024.

@evacide this is **great** news. has been an absolutely terrible actor regarding its App Store both to consumers and to developers. They will now have to compete on merits. I don't see how they hope to restrict it to EU only. I am sure they'll try but it won't work. Once 3rd part app stores are allowed in EU other countries will pass similar legislation.
