I'm not comparing iOS to Android - i'm comparing iOS to every platform EPIC makes money on. 20% is a big chunk yes, but 2 billion instead of 2.5 billion is still a ton of money, and they're obviously willing to sacrifice in order to get to their real goal - bringing the EPIC game store to iOS

You're cherry-picking your data. What about the % of revenue in 2020, or in 2019?

Not cherry picking - I picked the most solid comparison of revenue between platforms I could find. No idea of the % of revenue in 2020 and 2019 - I couldn't find them.
