Yet another reason not to bet on Apple (plasmasturm.org)

I thought this would be about betting on Apple succeeding, but instead it is about betting your business on Apple's platform.

Let's be clear, it is always a big risk to bet everything on a single platform. It is not a new thing for Apple to crush businesses in their own developer community out of their own self-interest. Neither is it a new thing for Microsoft to crush businesses in their own developer community. Even "partnering" can lead to disaster.
