If an alternate store can have a game emulator, could it also have e.g. an Android app emulator, which in turn could run Android app "ROMs" that aren't individually notarized?
You can run Linux software on iOS via iSH. Efforts to get anything more powerful on iOS is limited because JIT is restricted to web browsers only.
Unfortunately paying Apple’s extortion fee might provide ammo to legitimize it.
Someone ends up paying Apple either way. On the App Store, that person usually ends up being the developer. With the new framework (stupid as it may be), developers can choose to externalize that cost to users and make an example of how ridiculous it is. With high-demand apps like emulators, it's easy to attract users and directly expose them to the limits Apple imposes on them. That's a great vehicle for change, and…
I thought the restrictions/Apple's fee around those were different?
e.x. You average $2 per install on in-app purchases you get $1.40 (30% Apple fees) on app store or $1.50 ($0.50 install fee) on 3rd party store
