Stop making me download your fucking app just to look at something I should be able to see in a browser

@heygeorgie I really don't like smartphone applications that behave like HTML.

@kotaro as someone that's had to build it, i don't like when html is made to behave as an app @heygeorgie

@mensrea @heygeorgie There may indeed be such a situation.
I don't think that everything should be a web application either.
I would like to experience something dynamic and other than the purpose realized by Excel or IM, since it is implemented in a native application.

@mensrea @kotaro Yup I agree. And I think it’s also the case that some websites are *perfectly fine* and I enjoy the experience, and the app doesn’t offer additional features or benefits. So why would I use it?

@heygeorgie @kotaro there's a place for site, desktop apps, mobile apps, and hybrid apps. but there's a lot of pressure to use the wrong tools. apple for example tries to force apps, cause then they get to extract rent

@mensrea @heygeorgie Yes. Certainly the misguided domination by Apple contributed to the excesses of the 'dynamism' of the web.
