Delta seems to be allowed (at least partially) because of the DMA and the EU.

I'd also love to hear your suggestions on those couple of apps. Last time i checked, proper apps either charge whatever they want to because of their monopolistic position(+ the cost of an Apple Developer Program to a hobbyist) , and free apps unclear if they even solve the problem are designed to harvest and sell almost everything you have.

Orion is a very rare exception in both of these cases but they weren't able to make uBO work

Yeah, that's an important point. Delta on the App Store is most likely a direct result of the Digital Markets Act: https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/5/24122341/apple-app-store-g...
