Seems like they stonewalled anyone that would want to develop an app.
EU: Allow users to download outside your Store.
Apple: Ok. They just have to register with us two years ago, comply to every spec and be approved by us, and they must have a million installs on our Store last year to qualify.
EU: ...that's not what we meant.
Apple: ๐
They're being investigated for DMA non-compliance already, it's a stalling tactic.
