I don't think so - they’ve only been fined for the in-app anti-steering provisions.
For the second App Marketplace issue, I think that’s just a preliminary finding and is going to take longer to work out

Hm, maybe, I'm just going by what the article says:
> The companies have two months to comply with the orders or risk daily fines.
Maybe they got it wrong, though.
I think you're both sort of right.
The orders in question here are 1 for Apple (the one that made circumventing Apple payments super difficult) and 1 for Meta (their ad-free subscription service). Meta and Apple have to comply with those within 2 months.
The preliminary finding on sideloading apps isn't subject to that 2 month compliance deadline from what I can tell.
