Apple doesn't really have experience with building a platform for user generated content. Sure, they have the technological might, but content moderation, recommendation fairness, ad monetization, etc. are different beasts and usually come with awful publicity risks that might just not be worth the effort for the world's richest company.
- andrewinardeer 3y agoIsn't the App Store basically user generated content with moderation? They have certainly received bad publicity over the App Store.
- sirpunch 3y agoGood point. Although I'd also say that the barrier to entry for content producers is somewhat higher for App Store. You'd likely need some level of computer science education and their review process also takes longer and is controversial at times.
