Cool! Does this support compiling of games to WASM, with deployment at the edge?
The walled gardens from Google and Apple are clearly a duopoly, and these revealings from Epic show just how far these companies will go to prevent competition.

We need a third option for an app store that works on both iOS and Android, featuring lower rates, desperately. As another comment suggested, maybe Microsoft can be the new entrant here.

I'll reiterate what most of you already know - this company is incredibly shady.

Previous threads for those who don't know their history:

Stay far, far away.

Interactive movies could end up being a really, really big thing. Much bigger than games.

This is what will bring the masses into the proverbial "metaverse". Or in this case, the Appleverse.

Wow. So here's a thought...maybe he was trying get ahead of all of this by making a bid for Twitter, in order to squash stories and control the narrative, knowing that this would all come out?
