My comment reacts to a comment claiming Apple doesn't care about collecting a fee from web apps.
Web apps theoretically allow both developers and users to skip the app store, and thus it's fees.
Both users and many developers benefit from the store for reasons already outlined in ways that the web can’t replicate.
It’s not going to be ‘dropped’ just because streaming games don’t fit the model.
Perhaps you missed the top of this thread and lost track of what this conversation is even about?
If web apps can take the place of apps (and in broad strokes, yes they can) then the thought experiment is to ask "What if all apps became web apps?"
And that was just part of evaluating the plausibility of the position that Apple doesn't care about collecting fees from web apps.
This statement is complete bullshit.
But in any case, that’s exactly why they want the browser to be successful too.
Otherwise there might be an antitrust case which would cause them to lose the store.
