lol, the irony is patreon is also a platform. Its platforms all the way down. They take 12%. If Apple wanted to be the good guy, they’d take 30% of patreon’s 12%.
Middle man skimming off the top.
Pretty sure they are the top man
If digital platforms didn't add any value, every android app would just be available for sideloading on the dev's website. Not that I agree with Apple's pricing tactics, but running and moderating a marketplace isn't free
