#AppFatigue IPA: /Γ¦p/ /fΙΛtiΛΙ‘/ (n) The tendency to NOT install new apps on your mobile phone because you finally understand that most apps should just be a website so you can seamlessly use a service on a PC, laptop, tablet or mobile device. Also a sign of distrust as apps are black boxes with access to a lot of data sources that invade your privacy in ways you can hardly quantify.

I noticed that I simply stopped caring about new apps a few years ago. When I get a new mobile phone, I have a rather small set of apps I install and that list is more or less the same since many years. Banking app, Signal, and a few more.
π³οΈβπ Brie ππ΄π±β¨@jwildeboer I switched to a lightweight launcher app quite a few years ago now, KISS Launcher. Every time I do a big Google update or move phones I am pleasantly surprised that, like, nothing has changed. They move some stuff around in the settings, but my day-to-day UX is no longer their marketing playground.
Highly recommend it, with KISS or any other launcher.
