User base if the West, but not predominantly the world
- peoplefromibiza 3y agoNot even that. Threads is not available in EU, which is the biggest chunk in terms of population of the so called West.
- waihtis 3y agoIf I had to make a guess I would have supposed non-West to be overwhelmingly mobile first also. Is this not true?
- triyambakam 3y agoYes that's what I was intending to say. So I agree with you, that the idea that a user who prefers mobile first being niche is highly specific to the West.
- fennecfoxy 3y agoLmao, the world outside the West is MORE mobile based than the West. Many citizens of many countries can't afford a laptop or desktop setup, go to a small village in Thailand or something and they'll all have cheap Chinese Android phones as their connection to the local outside worlds.
- triyambakam 3y agoThat's what I thought I said. I'm responding to this point: > you are so far in the niche in today's internet userbase it will not matter That the idea that a user who wants a web app (mobile first) is niche is only applicable to the West; that most of the rest of the world wants a web app.
