@paladintom @dangillmor The reason why most people such as Dan (and myself included) want less reliance on apps is because most apps have trackers that basically affect your privacy and freedom. It's a well-known fact that most apps send so much data to data brokers and other Big Tech companies that you Tom don't understand.

FOSS apps are the exceptions rather than the rules since they usually don't track people

@joeo10 @dangillmor Joe, I do indeed understand how apps track users and sympathize with those who wish to not be tracked at all.

I personally prefer a better experience with apps that PWAs don’t quite offer yet. I DO care about privacy overall which is why I’ve gone with Apple, who I consider the least worst. I know Apple isn’t perfect, but I also try to use apps from indie devs that sync to iCloud on the backend and have reasonable privacy policies.
