This also parallels with developers complaining that they can’t have a direct relationship with customers.

I don’t want a direct relationship with developers. I don’t want to go to their website to subscribe or to cancel my subscription and I don’t want to give them my credit card information.

I want to be able to use “Sign in with Apple” and not give them my real email address.

I absolutely agree. It seems like some developers are under the impression that everything needs to be a social experience. It doesn't.

100%. It really hacks me off when I can’t “sign in with (Apple/google)”
