The end user is completely toxic as a result of the App Store. I cannot buy books in Amazon's app, because Apple think they are entitled to rent seek on it. We've ended up in a word of crappy gambling simulators instead of sensibly priced paid software because Apple engineered the store that way.
I certainly don't want the App Store to become the more or less anything goes Google Play Store which is still riddled with malware and shovelware.
One of the reasons why I enthusiastically continue to choose the Apple platform is that Apple has standards and gives an actual damn about the end user and having actual platform-wide standards and conventions instead of letting devs do whatever the hell they feel like à la Windows or Android.

The App Store is horrible for me, as a user.
