For a dev with little to no time, this does basically say you can't show other sign in options. You can have only Apple sign in, but not only $competitor sign in. Let's say I have an old app that isn't bringing me much new revenue. I have currently have implemented two options: sign in with email + password, and "sign in with Google". After this announcement, I would just remove "sign in with Google" as an option, and force all my users who previously used "sign in with Google" to set a password. |

Okay, you do that. That's not a punishment to Apple, you might bounce some of your own users and is a choice you made exclusively.

If that's the antitrust argument, they just need to reword it say "and include another signin method" or logged out functionality. I just don't think thats a strong enough argument, as they aren't removing choice in any way only adding it, except to people with existing apps - like you - who will risk decimating all their own users.
