- Santosh83 6y agoNot really. Non-programmers have also been using computers ever since the PC revolution and are quite used to downloading, installing and running programs, provided it has a usable GUI. After all, web apps are very recent. Even now, most programs are installed, and the rest are websites.
- jakelazaroff 6y agoWeb apps are relatively recent, sure. But the web is three decades old at this point. The majority of people using computers today grew up with web apps being a thing. It's difficult to verify, but my guess is your stats are backward: most programs are websites, and the rest are installed.
