I think the only way Apple or any App Store should take a cut from these types of apps are if they are processing the payments and then you can charge your 5% or whatever. I feel the same way about Apple trying to take a cut of people who buy ads on Facebook in the Facebook app.
But the real solution, I think, is for Patreon and Substack to just leave the App Store. Fuck it. Leaving is the only way to maybe win. Yes, that might make it worse for your users. Fuck it.
