Some weasely words from the Google spokesperson. Microsoft may be able to let users purchase and play games within their app, but google policy does not let them provide and app to do that on the app store. Sure sideloading exists, but it might was well not from a discoverbility and user friendlyness perspective and Google knows it.

Kind of disapointed the article didn't dig any deeper into both sides


I despise market monopoly abuse. But it's a bit of a Schadenfreude seeing the Microsoft as the victim.

Yeah, its nice to see MS finally get a taste of their own medicine for a change. If they really cared about "breaking walls" and openness, they're more than free to release an Xbox app for Linux.

Safe and secure experience lol
