This is great news!! Completely free apps no longer pay the CTF, and developers making less than €10M/yr (basically all indie devs) now have a 3 year buffer before CTF bills kick in — giving them time to adjust if any of their apps do end up getting over a million downloads
This is a great step forward, and most importantly means indies can try out alternative marketplaces like AltStore without fear of immediately bankrupting themselves 🙏 https://www.macrumors.com/2024/05/02/apple-updates-core-technology-fee-eu/
