Thanks, but no thanks. I am not installing an app just to view a website. I have a browser.

- nseggs 5y agoI am there for 9/10 cases, but needing to have a browser session logged in to Reddit at all times so that it defaults to old.reddit.com is pretty obnoxious on mobile. Apollo also surfaces far more functionality with far more immediacy than I can normally be bothered to interact with in a (mobile especially) browser session. I’m actually using the Hack app by Pranoy Chowdhury for Hacker News for many of the same reasons.
- salusinarduis 5y agoI'm the same way, but I finally gave in and tried Apollo. It's really well made and unrestricting. Would highly recommend it, even though I no longer need it, as I've switched to a freedom respecting distribution of Android.
- TedShiller 5y agolol so true. Apps are actually inferior for the user these days. Example: I can easily skip YouTube ads on the mobile YouTube website, so I use that. Can’t skip ads on the YouTube iOS app.
