It's a bit like asking which power company has pretty technicians.
- klausa 2y agoWe're in a thread talking about a technology that purports to make creating "native mobile apps, as easy as creating a website"; and the parent claimed that the Alipay/WeChats mini-app stacks are similar. I don't think asking for examples of this resulting in an experience that's pleasant is unreasonable?
- afavour 2y agoI think the point OP is making is that the relative pleasantry of the experience isn't as important for end users as it is for us developers. My anecdotal experience bears that out: I shudder when I see a web-heavy native app, my non-tech friends don't bat an eyelid. People learn UIs, no matter how janky, very quickly if the end goal is important to them.
- scotty79 2y agoI think my point was that an application that exists, is up to date and works is a better application than the one that doesn't exist or is stale because it's harder to write and maintain but feels (or would feel if it existed) nice and polished. For practical purposes like buying stuff or accessing information I want practical applications that can be quickly iterated on.

- 1shooner 2y agoWell, do those WeChat services have competition? That's where I've seen the push for better UX: it's a signal to users that your product is overall higher quality. So not so much 'pretty power company technicians' and more 'Is the lobby of the hotel clean?'.
