Seems like a really dumb idea for them, as it will just give more exposure to other platforms which they can’t gatekeep. But beneficial to everyone else on the internet I guess.

I mean it seems like a dumb idea for Microsoft to block these apps, as they will just move to other platforms, and those other platforms will start to become more popular, which is bad for Microsoft. But good for the rest of the Internet.
True. But they just don't care. Usual monopolistic behavior.
