Summary:
- Patreon, a popular platform for creators to receive funding from their supporters, has announced that it will no longer allow creators to use Apple's in-app purchase system. This means that creators will not have to pay the 30% commission fee that Apple charges for in-app purchases.
- The change is due to Apple's policies, which require a 30% commission on all in-app purchases. Patreon believes that this fee is too high and wants to provide a better deal for its creators.
- This decision by Patreon is a significant move in the ongoing debate between technology companies and Apple's App Store policies, which have been criticized by many for being too restrictive and expensive for developers.
