Unless you only ever use your own apps and nothing else, some of us are also “users” (in the general consumer sense).

Unless you jumped straight from school into a company with the goal to make mad money and nothing else, some of us became developers precisely because computer technology shaped our lives and became our passion.

We want to give our users the best experience possible, and don’t really care about their email addresses and credit card numbers and shit. And Apple’s IAP is closest to the ideal system:

• Minimal clicks and no jarring exits out of the app into third-party websites

• No need to re-enter payment and personal info at multiple places

• Biometric verification

• Preserves privacy and protects financial info

• Shows all receipts and subscriptions in one place

Even if Apple took a 50% I would still want the users of my app to have access to those benefits, because that’s what I would like all other devs to give me in their apps.
