So I need to have as many apps as the number of websites I visit in a month? Hacker news, Reddit, NY Times, other news sites, BoingBoing, my kids' school, each restaurant, each airline I might ever book, Craigslist, etc etc etc?
That's ridiculous. Browsers exist for a reason.
- jfengel 3y agoI agree, and yet a lot of users seem to expect apps. To them, if you only have a web site you look unprofessional. Even though we all know perfectly well that most apps are repackaged web sites.
- manvillej 3y agoI don't think I have ever felt that only a website feels unprofessional. Anecdotal, but still. A well built, well designed, responsive site is all I need to know that someone is on top of it. I'd rather see them do 1 method very well than 2 methods haphazardly
- gochi 3y agoMost of those sites operate as apps, and browsers have mostly become an OS. So yes, that does fit my perspective.
- nsonha 3y agoMany of those websites don't even need to exist, as pure informational portals. They should just be boards in a (indeally decentralized, uniform) network of news source
