Re:More than 30 states sue Google over 'extravagant' fees in... by extra88 on Thursday July 08, 2021 @12:36AM (#27768525)
This article [0] says the Play Store takes 15% from the first million but Apple's store takes 30% of everything once you pass one million/year. But it also makes it clear that only a very small percentage of apps in either store make more than one million/year.

Another article [1] says 98% of developers in the Apple store would be below one million/year but also that that long tail generates only 5% of the store's revenue. There are a tiny number of apps that are enormous winners, games I assume, and there's everything else.

So it's much better to earn 999k instead of 1.1 million...
