Never dedicate your business to a platform without expecting them to clone you. Apple is the most famous example of a frenemy, and there are countless examples of this playing out in Silicon Valley. Build the platforms, not the apps.

I don’t like the “build the platform” mantra. It’s what leads everyone in crypto to build protocols instead of use cases. I prefer “build something with real value, keep delivering more value”. This is another way of looking at what apples doing, as a side note.

including many past apps like flashlight apps, screen casting to non-apple product apps, rotate/mirror/crop/flip video apps, etc

Another way of looking at this is that Apple adopts a feature as it becomes a commodified experience. So the further you are on innovation edge of the curve, the safer you’ll be
