- jasonkostempski 8y agoAs long as I can use a browser with uBlock Origin and API access (location, file system, camera, etc.) remains sane, I would very much prefer a web app. I don't want to: waste time installing; use up limited storage space; allow who knows what kind of access to other stuff on my device (e.g. LinkedIn and Facebook style abuse of native APIs); and have no way to combat ads. Especially for something I'm going to use maybe just once a month or less.
