Why the fuck would anybody install an APP to use a website?

(Puts on clown face) "Sure, I'll install this program on my pocket computer from the Urban Dictionary to save the time it would take me to open a web browser and type in the URL of it, all it costs is me giving direct access to my stored personal data and real-time activities"

Lemmy (and Mastodon) apps do IMO provide added value over the websites, but AFAICT the Urban Dictionary app would be better off as a web shortcut on one's home screen

Well it looks like the app adds motion and fitness abilities… /s

I stand corrected! Brb, downloading the app and giving it full access to my devices.
