Yeah, it’s… interesting. Especially with donations.
Apple takes a 30% cut, then Google does so as well from the remainder.

Also to note are regional pricing differences. Let’s for example compare US and Ukraine pricing:
| Plan | United States of America | Ukraine (converted to USD) | Ukraine (UAH) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Student | $8.99 | ~$1.36 | ₴59 |
| Individual | $15.99 | ~$2.28 | ₴99 |
| Family | $26.99 | ~$3.43 | ₴149 |
Though I don’t know how much that would seem over there.
But anyway, I pay $1.99 for DNS (NextDNS), so $2.28 for streaming high quality video without ads? Sure, would seem fine.
I wonder how much cost difference there is on the Google side between the regions.

Oh, and also the tradition of melting lead on Christmas and pouring it into water, getting prediction of the future.

I’ve already seen this one.
