Drop those apostrophes - a web developer is a completely valid, skilled profession.
Web apps unequivocally compete with native apps, that is a fact. I prefer the Slack web client to the native version. I use Google Docs instead of Microsoft Word. I use Google Drive, iCloud, Google Photos etc. instead of my own harddrive.
To think that web apps don't compete with native apps is simply untrue.

- benzoate 7y agoThe iOS and iPad apps are native, as far as I can gather, and there are differences in how the conversations are laid out (e.g. date separators).

A web "developer" that only knows webdev, doesn't have the skill or will to learn anything else but webdev, insists on splurging web crap as "apps" outside of the web—that's, to me, is not legitimate, and "dev" worthy.
