Apple doesn’t ban Mac users from downloading software outside the App Store.
Microsoft bans Xbox users from downloading unlicensed software.
The Xbox doesn't have the majority of the gaming market.
The smartphone market is basically a duopoly.
This says Xbox has over 60% of global market share:

Tbh I think that data is incredibly misleading. Every single generation of PlayStation has outsold the Xbox of the same generation(yes even the ps3) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_game_consoles.
Additionally looking at the faq for that site it appears to get its data via page views. What % of console users actually use the browser? Is bet very few. Especially when you consider the ps5 has no built in browser.
