I don't think so, I see most people reading documents. Now those documents might have lots of spyware, adware, scroll highjacks etc. embedded in them using JS, but at heart they are documents. For example a Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc, page is more like a doc than an app for the most part. The internet is people consuming content. Even web "apps" served using Rails can happily work like this for the most part, with the occasional form post, for example Hacker News, Banking, Email. I am finding old school web apps much nicer to use honestly. They run work fast on modern connections and hardware.
- minerjoe 6y agoFWIW, Facebook works great in Links. https://m.facebook.com https://m.facebook.com
- peterburkimsher 6y agoThere's also a lite version of Facebook for those who want Messenger without an app. https://mbasic.facebook.com https://mbasic.facebook.com
- swilliamsio 6y agoAlso https://www.messenger.com/ https://www.messenger.com/ for Facebook Messenger without the app or the Facebook.
- Jaruzel 6y agoIf you have 'mobile' or 'tablet' in your useragent this URL only offers a link to download the app. However, for desktop it's great - I use it (and web.whatsapp.com) with Chromes --app= parameter to emulate the app experience.
