Bring back Fortnite Mobile

The Issue

I am a 16 year old kid who lives in NY. At first, I didn't really care that mobile was getting banned. Then I realized it wouldn't be able to play with friends. It made me very angry because I felt powerless. I feel powerless. This is the only way I feel I can make a change. This is the only way I can get my voice heard. What's really sad is that if this was a different platform, (like PC) everyone would be much angrier and the outrage would've probably forced Epic to stand down. I'm tired of playing in Playgrounds with kids who can't even keep up with me. I was trying to become a competitive player. Just when I started placing in the top 100s consistently, this happens.

The worst part is, mobile players aren't the only people being affected. Fortnite Mobile used to bring in a lot of money for Epic. After it was removed, Epic basically lost all of its revenue from mobile. Because of this, Epic has had to drop the amount of money they invest in Competitive Fortnite. This is also affecting competitive players. They should be wanting to make a change as well.

Epic Games and Apple are feuding over whether or not the direct payment method is fair or not. Honestly, none of the mobile players care and are willing to pay the thirty percent if it means being able to play with friends. But that's besides the point. The Fortnite mobile community is dying because it is being caught in the middle of this. We didn't ask Epic to do this. We shouldn't be getting caught in the crossfire. We don't care how you do it, just bring back Fortnite mobile before the rest of your community dies (and fast).
