I'm happy that you've been able to have a positive experience forgoing using apps in some specific instances, but again as stated my point is more generally that sometimes apps can have functionality that provides more convenience than a browser and we don't seem to be furthering that topic with this tangent. Have a good one ๐
okay but when? when does an app provide function a browser couldn't, for commercial silicon valley type 'apps'?
I mean, even the things they used to do that I'm not 100% sure a website could are being stripped out-lyft for example no longer sends notifications except by sms, unless you opt into advertising.
