Comment on Apple terminates Epic Games developer account calling it a 'threat' to the iOS ecosystem
Eximius@lemmy.world 3 months agoGet out of here with this whataboutism.
As far as companies go, Apple is the one being slowly brought back under the law of a free market, after doing gray / illegal stuff for decades.

Epic’s DRM patches routinely break games and open up security vulnerabilities. This isn’t even something new, its been a problem with the company for decades.

While I definitely don’t know everything about Epic Games, but my (quick) googling suggests that they do almost no DRM (or just piggy-back on steam, which is minimal DRM). The individual developers are responsible for DRM. Is this not true?

Considering Epic is a competitor of Steam and actively pulled the games from steam, this seems rather uninformed.

Just because it is a competitor, it doesnt mean it does DRM. Foremost, it is a service to deliver games to you at a price.

Both things can be true to be honest

But we always need to pick a side.
