Sadly no information here about the mechanisms for how alternative app stores will work, which is the most interesting part for me. Will the .ipa format be standardized like .apk and will we be able to make iOS apps without having to use macOS?

No, you'll need to install through an approved alternate marketplace. See https://developer.apple.com/support/dma-and-apps-in-the-eu/#...
