The new rules prevent “anti-steering” practices, whereby the platform owner — in this case Apple — prevents app developers from informing their users about alternative payment or subscription options. And the DMA also has provisions for preventing gatekeepers from requiring developers to use their own payment services. “For years, even in our own app, Apple had these rules where we couldn’t tell you about offers, how much something costs, or even where or how to buy it. The DMA means that we’ll finally be able to share details about deals, promotions, and better-value payment options in the EU,” Spotify said in a blog post. One where you can see all subscription pricing, promotions or deals, and even make purchases, all seamlessly within the app.

“Tempting the Thrifty: Reencle’s Home Composter Upgrade, Available at a Cost”

Reencle Gravity Smart Composter
The upgrade, dubbed Reencle Gravity, is due out by around September of this year. If the upcoming composter works as advertised, it’ll help households reduce their greenhouse gas emissions from food waste, while generating nutrient-rich fertilizer for gardens. However, the Gravity composter may also digest a good chunk of your income, thanks to its expected $649 price tag. Still, many of these tools demand outdoor space, time and some elbow grease in order to turn food waste into fertilizer. Reencle also says the Gravity composter can handle up to 3.3 pounds of food waste per day, or 50% more than the Prime model.
