Closed platforms have their disadvantages and advantages for user and devs. I want to see Apple win because they created this whole thing and always had the 30/70 till someone with a stink eye thinks they are making too much.

No, everyone thought they make so much. It took someone big enough and immune enough to challenge it.

You won't expect the single-parent-of-two type of developer to even hope of touching Apple. That sort of developer has no alternative but to keep paying the Apple 'tax'. It's no different than general purpose extortion.
