You didnt need more aspx to run in windows. Run in linux .net core and with sql server for linux.
Got a tip for us?

You do know that you can buy an annual sUbscription much cheaper through amazon etc than going through Microsoft or the app. I get the family sub for 60% of the annual price Microsoft sells it for.
What makes you think they would universally charge $1, especially if Apple let developers set their own prices and not just #.99
What’s next. Apple has retail stores and MS just had to close theirs and gotta be someone’s else’s fault.
You can do that for mobile apps too, it's just that there is really only one other store, the Google Play store (which from what I understand has similar terms in many, but not all, respects). That fact that there are less options in the mobile phone space is not a result direct result of anything Apple has done (such as if they'd bought and absorbed other mobile phone/mobile phone OS makers to reduce their competition). Just like you don't have the right to demand that your product be sold in Walmart for the customers that visit it, neither can you demand your product be sold in the Apple App store for the customers that visit it.
If there were 10 different smart phone/smart phone OS companies out there each with their own stores I don't think this discussion would be going on, but since there has been so much consolidation in this sector it's coming up for debate. Neither Google nor Apple have gone out and aggressively bought up/merged with their competition like what happens in some industries, it's just come to a point where it takes so much financial and technical inertia to operate these ecosystems (as well as the general population's desire to find a mobile OS that suites them and stick with it) that it creates a large barrier to entry for other companies to try and enter the space.
No they wouldn’t - For example I don’t mind current pricing for stuff, I have however serious issue with value of some subscription based apps
if Apple’s cut decreases, prices won’t follow by same % so costumers won’t win anything
Having or being a monopoly is not illegal. Using that monopoly to stifle competition is. Luxottica owns over 80% of the sunglasses and eyeglasses market and clearly has a monopoly. Sirius XM is the only satellite radio available. By it’s very nature, a patent ensures a monopoly for about 15 years.
Editing to add that’s why Microsoft got into trouble years ago with Internet Explorer. They used their monopoly to stifle competition by forcing PC manufactures to make IE the default browser. Google has had several issues, including one instance where they used their dominance in the ad market and prevented other advertisers from placing ads on websites where those sites were using Adsense.
Both companies were monopolies, which was fine. It’s when they used their dominance to prevent competition that it became illegal.

You got Google Play Store too.

Microsoft XBox Store takes 30%. Plus a dev program fee. Plus a fee per update! DLC, Digital Codes, etc.
According to Wikipedia it’s 30%.
EssilorLuxottica, which now occupies nearly 30% of the global market share and represents almost a billion pairs of lenses and frames sold annually.

While your add it make sure you include the MS Xbox Store, Nintendo Store, Playstation Store did I miss any?

Plus a percentage of every disc pressed, plus DLC, plus update fees in the $1000s...
It was painful reading your post. And yes I'm making a point to say that.
Companies can install IPAs via MDM if they need to distribute to employees internally. As far as the public, yeah it's a pain but the App Store exists to remove that pain. 😏
If you were a developer it would be the same as any other environment. MS Xbox Store, Nintendo Switch and Playstation Stores all charge 30%, update fees and they choose which title can be sold on their stores. Mortal Kombat couldn't be sold on the SNES until it remove (re-painted) the blood!
30% is what a developer would be happy to get if they has a boxed item on a retail shelf like Best Buy or Target.
It's funny how there's complaints that side loading apps is "a pain", as if it's the primary method of app distribution.
Let's face it, devs want to use the App Store rent-free and keep 100% of the profits. That's not how the business world works. Unfair? Don't be in this business then, it's not for everyone.
I've beaten this to death: free apps don't pay a dime except their annual dues for the dev program. Free apps represent over 90% of apps on the App Store. All that bandwidth and cloud storage space they could be charging for is being used rent-free.

Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google should all get roughed up a little bit, frankly. Consolidated market power isn’t good for anyone.
You have clearly misunderstood my post. My post never even hinted that I thought every app would be “universally” priced at $1. I’ll rephrase it for you:
lol you really think developers will lower the price of, for example, a $1 app to $0.70 if they don’t have to pay Apple?

Quoting from Wikipedia is always met with skepticism. Schools don’t even allow it as a reference. Wikipedia themselves say they aren’t a reliable source.

I got my statistic from https://www.wallstreetmojo.com/monopoly-examples/
its not. We dont want apple to access our app and test either it was b2b or b2c.
I have no problem with Apple charging 30% or even 99% on their App Store.
I do have a problem with us not being able to download apps outside of the App Store. iPad is being pitched as a computer replacement. Can you imagine not being able to install software on your Mac or Windows computer? Let us check a box saying we understand the risk and allow us to download directly. If people are getting that much value out of the App Store, then they will continue to use it. Apple knows people are not and that is why they are keeping us locked in.

some people see 30 cents while reality it may 300 grand lost
. Some country pay cheap low price for programmer and the quality of apps/system getting low each day.
