I think we have reached the point when AppStore / Google Play must be spun off from Apple / Google and made to work as a separate companies, and have access to Android / iOS platforms on equal terms with other vendors.

We have a great example of such approach on desktop: while some people decry Steam for being a monopoly, it is totally different. Users aren't forced to use it, but choose to use it, and nobody prevents them from installing epic store or whatever. This will stop monopolistic anti-user abuse in their tracks and greatly improve conditions for everybody (except Google and Apple, but after all these years, they kinda deserve it).
