This isn't as much behaving like the App Store as it is telling the App Store "hold my beer".

Not really; it’s the same. You can’t release products that compete with apple, ala an App Store, or games store, etc. It took a lawsuit to change that for Europe, but we still have yet to see what that looks like.

Not really. The pixel buds app is in the Apple store. So is Amazon.

Unless you're Roblox of course. What's up with that? Does Tim Cook own a bunch of Roblox stock or something?

I believe Roblox would have enough money to convince any platform hosting their app to capitulate.
