I don't even understand why people want to look at phone apps all day. I hate browsing the Internet on a phone screen usually, it's so inferior to having a monitor, mouse, and keyboard.

I mean if you're at work or whatever and you're bored, I can see wasting time on phone apps, but any other time I don't. But of course if you don't have a computer you can't just use the computer you don't have.

It's much easier to use touch than a mouse? Swipe keyboard are almost faster. And apps are just a more minimalist version of a desktop site. All the content, none of the clutter. I despised Reddit on my laptop.

Absolutely not. Mouse and keyboard are FAR faster than anything you can do on a touch screen.

I'll take you on in a typing contest if you disagree. I can type about 90 WPM on keyboard.

EDIT: I overestimated my typing speed. 64 WPM on my first and only try on typingtest dot com -

Um, ok calm down. I was only making a theory.
